Solution to that aren't mirrors, but a faster car...

True solutions fix the problem at the core and don't put bandages on the problem (like mirrors) :tup:

Your logic is flawless. Haha.

i dont think you'd need those dome mirror things...just set it outward past the view of your rear quarter.

And get used to the car. At first I was driving like an old lady but I'm starting to feel more comfortable now.

J/K - Know you won't but, GAWD, aren't those things tacky !?

why not? that's precisely what i did. they may not look too pretty but they are very effective at getting the job done. better stick on a cheap glued mirror than sideswipe someone in a lane change and damage or even total the car

I thought this was going to be an issue as well before I got my Z, but it's not. Set your side view mirrors so that when a passing vehicle begins to disappear in your rear view mirror, the are beginning to appear in your side view mirror. You should be able to see the front of the passing vehicle in your side view mirror and the rear of it in your rear view mirror. No more blind spot. Make sure you have your side view mirrors tilted up high enough so they can be adjusted out all the way, other wise you won't be able to fully adjust them.
