due to the heavy rain, i only put about 15 miles on the vehicle. i honestly cant provide much other than the following items.

1. the base radio sucks. i love how you cant even put the sound to the rear when you adjust it.

2. i will probably get used to it, but the analog speedo is a little bit hard to read

3. i personally wish the car would have a few extra cubbies for storage.

4. the car is very similar to my old 350. my wife mentioned that they both look alike except for nicer material.

5. the syncro rev thing is interesting, but its annoying at times.

6. maybe i am not remembering correctly, but the shifter is almost like a bus. throw is super long and a little too clunky.

7. whats with the seat. the headrest rods pop out to my back if i try to lean my head back!

8. i am breaking in the motor, so no revving past 4000rpm (others probably did during testdrives). it is better than my rx8 down low, but still nowhere close to the vette.

9. no squeeking yay!

10. the blue is really smurf like, i just need to paint the top part red to make it papa smurf

11. wish there is a small pocket behind the seats

12. ride is much better on this car than the 350, quieter too below 50

13. the headlight switch sucks. i hate auto mode between off and parking lights

this is all i could think of in 20 miles. i like the car so far, just little things i could think of 12 hours later.

typing on cell, sorry for the bad grammar
