Missing Features????(Help)

I'm still waiting on deliver of my DG/G 6MT. I haven't been able to drive a 6MT due to low supply/high demand.

My question is, what features have you found missing in the car??? Does the loaded Coupe have seat memory?????

No seat memory is a big one. Another is having the passenger side mirror pointing down when in reverse. Also I wish the door auto-locked when the car starts moving.

I think memory seat is my biggest pet peeve with this Luxury? Sport coupe. I mean, how much money do have to spend before they place it in the car.....atleast make it part of a luxury/perf package, ya know what I'm sayin.
If you have ever taken your car to get an oil change/maint. and didn't have this feature you know what I'm talkin about. It's a real PITA to get the seat just perfect again.

Yeah, memory seats are the main non-luxury, although personally I never let anyone else drive my car, so I'm just as happy not having been forced to pay the small amount extra. Then again, I always have it as low as possible and as far back as possible, so it's a waste for me in almost any car.

That mirror adjustment in reverse thing sounds interesting. Does anyone else have a really hard time figuring out where the front and back end on this car? Not sure if mirrors would help with that though.

Don't really get the auto-locks thing. I mean, you remembered to close the door in the first place, right? It's just something to do between that and putting on your seatbelt, although I can see how it'd be desireable in a 4 door with kids in the back. I've gotten in the happen of clicking the lock button whenever I get in the car anyway, just to turn the interior lights off. Whatever extra money they'd have blown on that I'd rather have used on a motorized Nav screen. James Bond would never close his own Nav screen by hand.

I use the passenger mirror turned down so I can get as close as possible to the curb, on end stalls, to avoid scraping the wheels in order to distance myself from potential door dings. I'm really going to have to get used to where the front corners really are in this car with such a rounded front end. Certainly not complaining though !! ...dean

I like the center arm rest on the AT better. More storage area. I don't like the lack of power seat controls. I just learned how to program the home link, very cool. Oh, I wish the gas door could only be open from the inside.

I think the gas door can't be open when the car is locked, so at least that's some protection.
