370z Complaints so far?

It seems to me, many forget they bought a sports car here - not a luxo-sports car like the G37 . Yeah, its street legal, but one could also say

Yeah, its street legal, but one could also say that the Ariel Atom can be made street legal. Wheres the telescoping steering wheel and heated mirrors in that?!!?

I dont own one yet, but these Im sure would be my chief complaints, barring any mechanical issues I run into:

-Fuel gauge pod looks completely out of place - make it look like the tach/speedo.
-Aluminum pedals would be nice, but nothing particularly REQUIRED...
-Oil cooler should be standard, or at least a factory option if the overheating problems are as apparent as everyone makes them seem.
-Exhaust note should be more pronounced and less "strangled"
-An oil pressure gauge would be dandy

I felt the same way, but it quickly becomes familiar, and at home where is it. The digital clock still bothers me as it is just not right, an analog clock would have been perfect.

I think I foresee myself taking out the bezel and painting it a flat black to blend in that much better. But, thats me.
