Somebody call the Wambulance on this thread.
It sounds like most of you bought the car out of a catalog.
"What, there's a big ol' bar in the trunk?"
"Who knew power seats were so slow?"
"OMG, those visor stickers don't come off?"
I am not saying the car is perfect but other than the 2003 pre order guys, the rest of us knew the job was dangerous when we took it. Besides if anything in your cars suddenly disappeared you would complain it was gone.

Actually, the auto dim feature works poorly. I'm thinking about modding it so I have a variable dimmer **** sticking out of the windshield side of mirror. This will allow me to set the level of darkness at night.

. The only thing I would add is an aux input for an i-pod.Between my '03 and '06 the interior has been greatly improved.

1) The flimsey passenger side cup holder
2) Any buttons on the steering wheel cause i never touch them
3) The inside trunk release
4) The rear wiper

Well, that's what I use it for anyway.

1. oil dipstick is absolutely useless unless the car sits for a couple of hours.
2. accidently turn the lights off when hitting the turn signal lever.
3. accidently turning on the windshield wipers by hitting the lever.
4. I would like the empty storage behind the driver's seat to have a door so that I could store and hide more stuff back there.
5. Nav compartment could be better sized to hold CD's or anything else. My cell phone sits in there now.
6. I use the steering wheel cruise control buttons all the time on a long trip.
7. I use the rear wipers all the time, the cup holder seems to work fine for paper cups. It looks flimsy but so far hasn't broken.

My only complaints are where the seat heater buttons are located 'n my non-navi console door. I've burnt my *** a couple of times by accidently hitting the seat heaters when I shift. The console door I hafta practicaly drop kick for it to open. Other than that, I love my car . Although....I am considering a trade in for a G. I've noticed that I could use the extra space in the trunk and back seat for when I pack stuff for stay over at my Sis's house. Maybe a 06' white G35c with the spoiler, then just change the rims to some 19" gold ones. Hmm...sounds delicious to me....what do you guys think?
