Buyer's Remorse

So is anyone feeling it?

Most days I love the car.

Some days I'm disappointed the rear seats don't fold down.

I have to look the other way at the gas pump.

But all said and done, it sure is a nice car to walk up to in a parking lot and get inside.

Thoughts?

The MPG definitely sucks, I'll agree with that.

Haven't regretted buying this car for a second. Wish the rear seats folded down, couldn't care less about the mileage, love driving it.

Is there a pass through at least in the rear seats - could I get my fishing rod or skis in the car?

No regrets here either. After almost 14 months of ownership, I love it as much as the day I brought it home.

Yes, there is a passthrough that will fit skiis or a fishing rod.

I am still pleased with my purchase.
It's a fun car to drive, I'm okay with the mileage, lots of great features, the X is the best thing since sliced bread. I am never, ever worried when my wife has to drive somewhere in snowy, icy conditions.

In other words this car ROCKS

I am extremely pleased with my purchase. Gas mileage sucks but I realized if I drive normal it isn't so bad. The car is sexy, still makes me smile everytime my butt hits the seat!

I am still absolutely thrilled with this car!!! This is the first car I have NOT had some amount of buyers remorse. I would buy this car over again in a heartbeat.

yeah, i thought this thread was a joke when i first saw the title. i thought "nah, it can't be."

i am just as in love (today) with this car as the day i drove away (i.e. rescued it) from the dealership. every product has it's shortcomings, but the g has so few that they can simply be overlooked (i.e. gas cap location? haha, cmon now). this car is a flatout performer, with options galore and unabashed sex appeal.

and the real validation is the # of head-turns and compliments i get weekly. still to this day, especially when she's just been washed, people can't resist this g's beauty.

I'm not feeling any remorse. I love my G, but i do wish it was smoother sometimes. My TL drives a lot smoother, but the G is a lot quicker.

I have so much buyers remorse I bought my third in a row. I could have afforded any of them... 335, IS, A4, Volvo, TL, but decided once again for the $ it can't be beat! Must say the 05 was so much nicer than the 03, a huge step up & now the 07 absolutely ROCKS, even more of a bigger step from the 05 to the 07 than the 03 to the 05! Loved them all.
