I'm a 32. My driver seat may be a Lil worn but when I sit in the passenger seat, it's definitely tight.

When you gas needle moves are you sitting on a hill or an incline. This can cause the needle to fluctuate. What I hate about my G....getting out of it.

People keep forgetting this is a system that was developed in 05 when flip phones were cool (remember the Razor?). I had one and everyone cool had one. The Razor is still a cool functional phone if you don't do any smartphone functions.

I think I posted this before, but I drove a friend's brand new06 Gcoupe nine years ago and it was very luxurious and awesome at that time. Its what drove me to buy one over a similar 3-series BMW.

What a nicer Nav? Go spend $40k on a new one..

What is this locking-nut mod you're talking about? I like my seat to be as low as it can go.

Search lack of drivers seat headroom. This gave me about 3/4" of extra headroom.

Now what do I hate about my G? Lack of room between the drivers seat & console. My fob fell out of my pocket when I got to the gym today. 15 minutes of trying to fish them out....finally used a pen to help get them in a position that I could grab them.

I don't really hate anything...

I hate the fact that there so many options and I want them all !

I dislike how the door comes flying back at me every time...
Dislike there's no Stock AUX....

That's really it!

Yea it sucks with the lack of AUX or BT on the older models. I use a FM transmitter from Bestbuy to plug my phone; not the best solution but it works.

The door issue can be remedied, but it requires buying new door stops and installing them. I barely have any time to work on my own car nowadays.

The only options I would like is an intelligent key (push button start for manuals), and memory seat.

Driver seat no lumbar adjustment, its to damn firm.
Reflector headlights
No heated steering wheel, even the 02-03 maxima had this.
No port for aux music
Home link works when car is turned off, this is a no no.
Heat soak
Not much rear seat room for a larger vehicle
The biggest one for me is the rear seats dont fold down. Why did they waste time making them recline instead of folding down? Even the Maxima folds down

07 6mt coupe:
seats even with mod sit too high.
I cannot rest my head on the "head rest"
needs about 50 more horsepower at least
door closes on my legs for no reason
no aux port or way to play music through blue tooth
clutch pedal engagement point is too high and feels sloppy
