So, nobody here parks their car in a parking garage? Because that's the #1 use of my card holder (parking garage ticket). I find it very convenient

Most useless for me is prob the sunglasses holder...I've tried every possible orientation, and still it won't hold any of my glasses! Runner up is the cup holders located under the arm rest...don't think I will ever use those.

I use the heated seats daily in the winter, watter bottle holders all year round, cubby hole (no nav) all the time, sunroof, cd changer, etc..pretty much everything else I use a lot, so they are all worth it for me.

 

Those door cup holders are good to hold a soda 16 or 20 oz bottle in. They fit snugly in there, so they don't bounce around the cabin under heavy braking or acceleration.

I actually find the upper center console cup holders to be more useless(The ones hidden beneath that little accordian door).... because any cup/bottle that you put in there, gets in the way of shifting with the manual transmission. I've never tried using the ones that are under the padded lifting compartment in the center. I usually keep too much crap in there to have room for cups. It's truelly amazing to me how much stuff I can fit in there, and still have the top close without hitting anything inside. That thing is like a god damn black hole of storage.

 

But you're young, and only have had your car for about a week. It WILL become your most used feature.

 

I put my gym membership card of course in the card holder- love it.
I'd have to say the damn auto-lights, why put that in between the "turn on headlights" position. What idiots.
Second the sun-glass holder, I have a good pair of polarized Oakley's that fit great but when you push that button they fall right the **** out. Great engineering

 

Despite my sincere attempts, I have yet to use that pesky little top speed limiter

 

What? The in between setting is kinda like a daytime running light. I almost always use that because I like how it looks with the sidemarker and clearance strip light up during the day.

 

Dual climate control and card holder.

 

o and i forgot, that little stash cubby in the backseat island. people always look inside there thinking they gonna find something.

 

This is the second "useless" thread in as many years, and man, funnier than the first. Not often I'm going thru six pages Lin'MAO.
On the auto light thing guys, for the Xenon owners, if they reversed the selection order to off/on/auto, anyone wanting to go from auto to off when say, entering a garage during the day, would hafta go thru on, which is the Xenon's worst enemy, decreasing bulb life bad (which is why the auto to off selection b4 going into the garage during the day in the first place). So those pocket-protector guys at Nissan do come up with a good idea from time to time ;o).

I'll hafta go with card holder, having not even considered using it in over 2 years.

 

cigarette lighter...i dont smoke

 

vdc is the most worthless feature for me...vdc should be operated by the gas, clutch and brake. i almost got in an accident one day cause of it. i came to an intersection, to the left there was a blind corner, i was making a right hand turn, a jeep was coming at me at 60+ around that corner, i hit the gas, i shifted hard, the gas cut off, and the jeep was almost in my bumper....

 

OH YA, forgot about that. vdc is the 2nd worst feature. i hate that thing in the back. anytime anyone sits in the back seat, they play with that gd thing. i have willow interior, so i would like to keep as many grubby paws off my **** as possible.

wow, i think i just exposed my o/c tendancies...

 

ok, this must be my favorite post. i dont usually complain about the g, love it too much to bitch about the small stuff; however, i do find so much **** that is useless to *me*

this next one is bad just cause i had to pay for it. they wouldnt take it off the car, even tho it wouldnt make a difference to the dealership. $70 trunk mats? wtf! who cares, its the trunk! whatever tho. it was only 70 bones. thinking about it that way, its got to be a couple of cents per mo in terms of financing. still way lame tho.

 

I dont use it because I find no need for it. I live in Florida as shown in my LOCATION thingy, however, I have AC for that. Sun roof adds on weight and not only that, but that weight is high wich means center of gravity is higher. M3 CSL has a light roof just because of that. Lower center of grav, better handling.

 

Oh yes! After reading some of you guys posts, I too must agree with the dumb dual climate. I mean, its not like as soon as you use that function, there is a wall dividing the car in half. If you want it warmer on your side, just close the darn vents! I wish I could have gotten my NAV without premium. There isnt ONE thing from the premium package that I use.

How come 04 owners dont list their Cassette player as one?

Ciggar lighter is useless for me aswell. Also, the trash thingy. I never have trash inside my car.
