I hate the door thing as well. What is really funny is when someone new rides in the car and they roll down the window after it has rained and water gets on them - haha sucks for you! I have learned how to lean the right way without getting any on me and also to keep napkins or a towel in the car for that exact reason!

I didnt know the glove box light was always on. Things you learn everyday about your G

And I noticed that whenever I drive with my girlfriend, she's turned on more often than that glove box bulb.
The water coming from an open window actually pi$$ed me off a few times. But nothing annoys me more than that buzzing rearview mirror.

take a little felt strip(with a taped back) and run it across the top of the glove box, and no more light!
the light got to me at first, but as time when on, i started to get bugged everytime the tach read below 6400k!
The water doesnt get me much...
my biggest thing right now is after each service, spending three to five days getting my seat back to normal or a comfortable position.

Word... I took it to dealership but that buzzing noise is still there sometimes. Plus my gauge cluster started rattling... I'll have to get that fixed as well.

dude you are reading my mind... i was so irritated yesterday when the light in the glove box wouldn't go off... and dont even get me started on the water, falling on the seats.

plus when using the power washer to clean the window, it always runs to the left driver side window.

I have come to a conclusion that my car cannot stay clean for more than 2 days max.

along the same lines, which i cant stand:
after spending an hour or so detailing the windows get wet everytime you put the windows up or down for nearly a whole damn day. i usually drive windows down when i can, and after cleaning they just get wet again when i put the windows up or down

Some great stuff here. Makes me realize, I am not the only one. hehehe

Gripes:
1) Windows getting wet and dirty when you roll them down a day after washing the car
2) The car is not water proof / sealed; from the trunk, windows, kick plate
3) The motor for the seat is so damn slow!!!
4) Seatbelt always gets stuck in the door! (If you don't move the latch down after exiting the car)
5) Power washer always going to the driver side window
6) Glove compartment light
7) No seat memory
8) Spending an extra $1k to get the car PERFECT(MREV + Tien S-Techs + Clear Corners)
9) The damn speeding tickets

But let me just say "I LOVE MY CAR!!!"
