This is color-specific, but the IP is a magnet for bugs. I'm not talking about bugs showing up easier either. White always seems to attract bugs and the IP is that much worse. I had a bee checking it all out at a light during lunch today and that reminded me. Very common to find a bug resting on it when parked outside. Not bad enough to pick a different color, but you know... ...as long as we're complaining.

hAHA. I totally agree about the bugs. Yesterday at lunch, i had like 2 ladybugs chilling on my hood. Im like WTF ? Flick !

I'd have to say the seatbelt is a pain (does really choke you), slow sunroof, the passenger seat going back and forth is too slow...

it gets hot inside, like a pocket of hot air below the steering wheel.

Things I dislike:
1. Weight (only if Nissan could find a way to keep the car @3100-3200 lbs ). When I am cornering the weight of the car can be felt.
2. This car hates left foot brakeing (left foot brakeing = understeer)
3. My car needs more than 280 HP to move 3500 lbs around
4. The paint chips easily and the bumpers are really thin and dent easily

I think thats it.
Eh.... the rattles dont really bug me.

I remember reading a post talking about the hot air entering the footwells. Seems like the guy said he sealed up a bunch of holes in the a/c tract or something and that kept the air from entering from the engine bay (?).

I've been thinking about this recently. I like having airflow even when the a/c is off, but my feet are roasting in this summer heat without the a/c on.

******* Cd player + Rattle + Stupid Window

I already had taken my car in to dealership to get it fixed cd skipping problems

and rattling. None of these problems yet solved.

Now my driver side's window is starting to freak out. It sometimes doesn't go

up. I'm worried that it might do everyday.

My gripes are pretty much the same as everyone else.

1) Soft paint (I am the master of touch-up now).

2) Slow sunroof (I have to wait a minute awhile before I exit the vehicle).

3) Auto lights not triggering soon enough.

4) Minor rattles here and there.

5) Seatbelt scratching the hard leather pillar (looks bad I think).

Last but not least, and I am surprised nobody has mentioned this, or maybe it's just my sunglasses:

6) Sunglass holder, for some reason my Oakley's refuse to fit in there. I even tried a pair of my friends Serengeti's, and they don't fit aswell. Even my hold Honda Accord had a decent enough sunglass holder, time for a redesign Infiniti?

I have a few other minor gripes, but I decided to keep the list short.

My guess is the ultra stiff platform, which gives us such awesome handling, resists flexing which causes the plastic (?) pieces to creek and moan. …just a guess…
