I hate the orange lighting. I hate the controls for the a/c way too many buttons. Trying to drive and adjust the heat or a/c and end up veering of the road..lol.

You can only complain about engine bay space if you are TT.

What are you getting and how are you driving it?

I'm consistently getting about 21 in commuting. 26 on the highway is typical for me as well.

I get the same...about 26MPG highway.

I just drive a lot. 400-500 miles per week. A beater getting 35MPG+ on cheap 87 octane would be nice to have.

Sounds like you need a early 90 Honda Accord. I had a 92 Accord EX Sedan with a manual transmission. It was fun to drive and fuel economy was in the low to mid 30s. Around here, you can typically pick one up with under 200,000 miles on it for a couple thousand. Mine was still running strong at 325,000 miles when I sold it.

After reading through this I tend to agree with most. Luckily I bought a used 05 Non-Premium roughly two years ago which was somone's baby. Car's at 467XX currently. I do hate the driver's seat belt, short lifespan on window regulators and big heavy *** you can't put an envelope in. Overall it's the best car I've owned thus far. Absolutely love it.

All the small electrical issues that crop up, like the window motors, stereo, third brake light, etc.

My 02 Altima had better cluster features than my 04 G35 sedan like MPG and such.

Not a fan of the prez clock either.

All the creaks and noises from the trunk and parcel. How did they not make it with 60/40 split rear seats is odd too.

Luckily my likes list is longer than dislike.
