I found out that if you turn these ***** just the right way, cold friggin' air comes out of holes in the dash. Real handy down here in the Sunshine State. Seriously, hats off to the Nissan engineers on these A/C controls. I love 'em. But then, I love 'bout everything on this car.

quick driving impressions
Still in break-in. Rather than repeat what everyone else has said in here and in the mags, I'll describe it like this:
I haven't had this much fun in a car since my cousin and I "borrowed" his brother-in-law's brand new Triumph GT-6+ and practiced our power slides on country dirt roads for about a week while he was stationed in Germany. (He should have hidden those keys better. Yes we did unhook the speedo cable, so he never knew.)
All I can say for you poor bastards that don't have yours yet is........ it's worth the wait.

Cup Holders
Before one of you boneheads posts a reply to my pic of the center console cupholders, I want you to know that I turned them around intentionally. That's right. That's my own little ECO (that's Engineering Change Order for you non-engineering types). By turning the cupholder around and sliding it to the front of the box, you can almost get some liquid refreshment out of there without dislocating your shoulder. Go ahead and use my little invention. I'm too busy enjoying the car to file a patent on it.
One more thing. Don't give me any crap about having the A/C temp set to 76 degrees. That's just the wife-in-car setting. Once she's out, I crank that baby down and chill out. You'll also notice she has the A/C vent on the passenger side completely closed. What can I say? Gets more air on my side that way, anyhow.
Honestly, I usually roll the windows down and sweat, just so I can hear those exhaust pipes beckoning me to let her go over 4K RPM.

Leg Room Question
Originally posted by gcinfl
My legroom. I'm 6'3" with 34" inseam. I have to move wheel all the way up, which is what I have to do in every other car/truck I drive. No problem. I think anyone 6'5" and under should have no problem with this car.
