370z Complaints so far?

Malm · 08-29-2014, 07:45 PM

For some reason in this car I cannot find a spot to put my phone when plugged into the radio out of direct sunlight (when a drink is in the cup holder). I like to take midday cruises (Florida) and have actually had my phone overheat (streaming music) from it just sitting on the passenger seat. This is of course from direct sunlight! Wish the z somehow had more interior shade with the windows down. It's a weird kink

Edit: &@@$$ cup holders please!

The best place I've found for my phone is to set it on edge length-wise between the parking brake and the cup-holder. YMMV.

I have a mount for my phone right above the airbag indicator on the right side of the radio. I think it works wonders.

I just found out what I don't like about the Z, is that now I don't enjoy driving anything else, wifey took the Z today to work to "show it off" to her g/f's as they went out for lunch a nobody believes she can drive a standard and I took her 2014 Rogue, which is fun but ehem boring. The fact that now most cars that are auto have this CVt transmission I'm waiting for the gears to change but it's like driving go cart...but the sound system and lack of road noise make up for it...carry on..
