Such a sweet car, but crappy looking side mirrors

Re: Such a sweet car, but crappy looking side mirrors
One of my favorite things about the car were the side view mirrors. I can agree the black would look stupid contrasting your car's color ( I have OB ). But as for the shape, I really really like it. It looks simple, and sleek. Nothing showy like Mercedes or BMW. I will keep my mirrors the same. =)

To me, I feel the side mirror blinkers is more of a safety feature then looks. You don't know how many times I almost get hit when I make lane changes. Just go see for yourself, watch a coupe or sedan change lanes and look at their car from the side.

Re: Such a sweet car, but crappy looking side mirrors
I think the blinkers on the sideview like said above are more of a safety issue. The sports coupe has a nasty blind spot and a means of kind of helping out that blind spot would be side blinkers to notify vehicles on the side of you that you want to lane change.
I hate the old M3 mirrors on anything but an old M3. That's my bottom line.
(hehehe I wouldn't mind have the M5 style mirrors though that fold up when I park). But regardless....

Re: Such a sweet car, but crappy looking side mirrors
If someone next to you is dumb enough to to not look when you merge in to their lane, then why would they be smart enough to notice a mirror blinker. Besides, if you are turning, isn't your responsibility to see if there are cars in your way and to avoid them? Sorry, just seems link another gimmick
