Look in the owner's manual to learn how to make the alarm activation silent. I promise. I just don't remember which page.

I guess I can make an exception for you. Thanks for the input.

As a token of thanks, I've rated each of your replies, and added a point to each of you.

Keep up the efforts - it's really interesting to see what others see as the one thing they'd change if they could.

Definitely audio controls on the steering wheel. I am so used to it, and it really is helpful to have a Pause, and Mute button. I don't want to go and lower the volume everytime the phone rings, or I entering construction areas etc.

Light backgrounds on all the controls. Like at night, the cruise buttons don't light up, so until you get used to it, you don't know where it is, and same with the trunk release button, not all the gadgets are lighted.

Other than that ... the car rocks for me.

I agree, my dad has a 72 chevelle with a 454 LS6 in it and it could even use morepower...
I would want more power or lighter weight

One thing I would change (in 2 parts):

1. I would like the optional rear spoiler a little higher, at least up off of the rear deck by a couple of inches rather than looking like it is glued on. It isn't is it?

2. Also, I would like a better cup holder for the driver instead of one by your elbow or the shabby one on the dash in front of the passenger.

I'd make it so lifting the door handle when the door is locked automatically unlocks it.

I've never had a car that doesn't do this... and apparently neither has anyone else, since people are constantly finding themselves locked in my car!

This seems kind of stupid, and I know it'll never happen, but it's fun to think about. Why have two seats? I'd just have one big seat and put it right in the middle. (Maybe they could even fit two little seats on the sides like the batmobile.) The point is, do you know how cool it would be to drive a car that way? Sitting on the side ruins your whole point of view. If you think a 2-seater is so much better than a 4, try a 1! I bet you'd never want to go back.
