No interior trunk release. Why?

Blind spots are terrible and dangerous.

No back up camera. Hello this is a $40k car in the year 2009.

The fuel gauge area/info center is dumb and looks out of place.

When you have your high beams on the little blue light in the dash is very bright and distracting. And it does not dim with the rest of the panel. Why?

No fog lights.

It seems like there should be a bit more sound insulation in the rear near the tires as you get a lot of road noise and other noises from debris in the wheel wells.


These are mostly minor gripes. The car is fantastic to look at and drive. The navi is great as well. The Bose system is just fine for me. I buy new cars every 2 years or so, so I've had many, and I've never had one that was perfect, there were always a few things that drove me crazy, and this car is no exception.
Agree with most of what you say, not sure when the backup cameras were part of a package but my 2012 has one.

Trunk release, definitely

I used to think that about sound insulation too, however when I got Bridgestone Potenza S-04 Pole Postion tires, the tire sounds practically went silent...maybe try that on your next set of tires sticky tires too btw

LOL!! so jut noticed this post was back in 2009 HAHA! I'm a little late to this party I think...
