Re: Top Five Shortcomings

My top 5 annoyance:

1) Slight clicking sounds behind the dash. Solution: either find a dealer which actually gives a damn, or turn up the music.

2) Suspension not pot-hole-friendly, too much road noise sometimes. Solutions: Install EDFC Tein adjustable dampers, get a Limo, or move back to California.

3) Gas milage not too optimistic in downtown city driving. (15-16mpg) Solutions: Drive like a sissy, get a Prius, get a bike, or move back to California.

4) Insufficient backseat headroom. Solutions: Manditory height check before every ride, don't sit back there, or lose the tall friends.

5) Not enough people give me attention. Solutions: Wear hot pink open botton shirts, bleach my hair, play 80's Rock on the radio.

Other small things~ a) Touch Screen Voice Activated NAVI w/ TV tuner and DVD player. b) small trunk ( put the grocery bag in SIDEWAYS) c) No projector style headlights (get some)

Oh yeah, I am still love the car, but little improvements wouldn't hurt.

Re: Top Five Shortcomings

1)noises from dash and panels.... I keep taking it back everytime I hear a new onw and it is now somewhat under control however.
2) Tire noise
3) front bumper prone to chips
4) no memory on driver seat
5) Rear LED should be integrated into trunk (w/o spoiler) I'm reaching now... There aren't many shortcommings

Re: Top Five Shortcomings

1. No trip computer (MPG and such) unless you blow $2K on the NAV
2. No driver's seat memory
3. Car looks like cop bait (that's why we love it)
