370z Complaints so far?

Glennm27 · 07-06-2014, 11:51 AM

The outside mirrors are too BIG.

The drivers side mirror actually causes a huge blind spot. I've never had a car with this problem. When making left turns is when it's most apparent. I've had to really adjust for this before it causes a major issue.
Anyone else have this issue?

I have the same problem. Also with the pillars. I think it is because of height because i'm 5'3...

Personally, I like the size of the mirrors as they help me navigate the blind spots caused by the pillars and headrests...and lack of visibility through the tiny rear window. Never really had any trouble seeing over or around them when turning left or right.

Those mirrors must double as major downforce generators.

No kidding. They are way too big. They're like friggin air brakes. I race Corvettes and have side mirrors half the size of these things.it has nothing to do with my height. I'm 6'1". It has to do with this giant mirror that I can't see around. You'll notice it next time you're in your 370.
