Those of you early members/pre-order people might remember when the manual was available as a .pdf file before the car even came out.
I think I had the manual memorized 3 months before my car arrived.
Ahhhh, the good ol' days....
-D'oh!

ok ok...i can understand y you would read the manual 30 times BEFORE you got the car. you had to wait months to get your car, and so you read something that made you feel close to your car untill it arrived. thats fine.
i only had to wait 3 days while my car was being shipped from PA, so really not much time to do anything. and there is no way i was going to waste good driving time to read a manual once the car was here.
heh, maybe ill take it in the bathroom like someones already done. thats acually a good idea. 2 birds 1 stone kinda thing.

personally I like if its cold out and you have it on auto, the heat wont blow cold air at you, it waits for the engine to warm up. maybe thats normal these days, but my last car didnt have auto AC of any sort.

Damnit ive read the manual many times and i didnt know about either of those. I was just wondering the other day why it was taking so long for the air to blow when set to "auto".
Ill check out the glove box thing tonight. CHEERS!!

Manual? I didn't get a manual. Maybe it is in that glove box thingy? How can I find the glove box without a manual?

Yea, I found a couple of things out as well after I took a look through the manual
1. what the hell that latch thing was behind the passenger seat
2. trunk release under strut bar

I had a guy at the dealer sit down with me for about 30 mins going over all of this stuff when I bought my car. They said it was required, even made me sign a sheet saying I had heard it all. That was definitely the most impatient I have been in my entire life!!
