Anyone not having problems
I have a DB Touring AT and I just love it!. Had it since December last year w/only 3000 miles on it. I only drive it when the weather is nice.
I have yet to experience any of the problems that I have read in this forum.
Am I the only one to not have problems?
No tire feathering
No weird transmission clunking noises
No rattles anywhere
No window grease
Crappy paint, but I put the Nissan black nose mask on and that fixed that problem with the nicks.
I guess got one of the good ones!
Anyone else out there???

~7500 mi. on my Touring-6MT since 9.4.02, and nothing major to report. The stock tires got noisy, but I'd intended to replace them with bigger, better & lighter from the get-go, and just did (VR LE-37T & Pilot Sport A/S), so that's a non-issue.
The Bose is just tolerable, at high volumes, but I'll replace the offending amp when a proper sub is available.
Can't say that I'm impressed with the durability of the interior plastics; I've scuffed the console and the strut-brace cover already.
That's nit-picking, though. It's so much fun to drive, that I just can't sweat the small stuff. I want a ProCharger, and a slightly taller, non-viscous rear-end, but until then, I'm a real happy guy.

Well, I think the A/C is crappy (but it is 110 outside). The stereo could have been better. I hate the tire sensors (had a flat one was broken $400 gone bye bye). But as far as actual manufacture defects that the car has had I wouldn't say I've had any (knocking on wood). And I've got about 7700 miles on her.

I've got around 5K on my DB Touring MT. Haven't had any problems yet. I replaced the front speakers because I wanted better quality than the Bose, but no mechanical problems.

I have 4,000 miles on mine, no problems, but from what I read tire feathering shows up @ about 10,000 miles. From this thread, none of us have crossed that yet. I am a little worried about our fellow members with issues not being resolved, but perhaps they are outliers.

I've got some difficulty shifting into 2nd smoothly (have to force it in) and wind noise from the windows at ~40MPH and over. Oh, and the crappy paint. I'm still waiting for new things to appear... I already see the negative camber rather prominently...

Just turned 4000 miles after 5 months of ownership. It is my daily commute car. Took it in for the free oil change and they told me the tires are wearing well. No rattles. No window streaks. No paint problems. No clunking from AT. The car pulled to the right as soon as I left the dealer when I bought it, but they were able to fix that. The only ongoing problem is that I have to press the gas cap release button a few times to get the gas cap to open. I have not had any problems filling to the top.

Still going strong
I originally posted this thread. I'm almost at 9000 miles and still looking good. Aside from the grease streak on the window (doesn't bother me) all is still great with this car! Especially since I now have the clear bra.
