I have my mirrors properly set up, as best I am able to anyway...

It was a 3 lane road, however, they were in the center lane, I was in the left lane. We weren't going the same speed - him slightly slower.

I have 20% tint, it was night time.

Couldn't see the tail lights in the rear view
Couldn't see the headlights in the side mirror
Couldn't see the headlights or anything else in the portal or the side window.

Another peeve is I wish the trunk had a lil more depth. The Z is so thick I don't know it should be able to have a deeper trunk. Other than that. The Z is perfect.

The placement of the cargo cover is kind of dumb. Where it sits, it takes away a vital 6-8" of the usable "trunk" area.
The cover should have been mounted to the crossbar.

Okay yea, that's possible, especially at night if you have enough traffic. If a car is right next to you at night you can sometimes not see his headlights on the road and not know he's there even with a quick glance out your window. With tint it's worse. I almost changed lanes into a black BMW once that was alongside me I didn't see pull up. Nothing much you can do about that tho except remain attentive

^Ya same here, I almost merged into a Toyota a little while ago.

The shoulder belt tensioner/arm clicks and is sometimes annoying. The highbeam indicator light is super bright (I use it a lot to drive home at night after work on a dark road).

Needs to come stock with an OIL COOLER!!!!
The paint is horribly brittle.

Rui Z · 05-01-2010, 02:10 PM

My biggest complaint about the car is that I get a raging hard on everytime I start driving it.

fullmonty · 05-01-2010, 03:16 PM

^Wasn't expecting that

red6spd · 05-01-2010, 04:58 PM

They take to long to get LOL still waiting for mine.

You dont like the road noise?? Well Nissan offers an Infiniti G37. Bet thats nice and quiet, but quiet=weight, weight=slower, cant have everything. And if my fat a** can fit comfortably in the thing (5 10-5 11 over 270LB) then its big enough lol

The windshield is an effing rock magnet.

True that one.. I call it a wagon wheel.

Also on the list is the poor poor seats. And buttons they used in the 1990 gm line. Almost all parts bin parts.

But the vette is a good value,,, just not a year round car.

Plus it is too wide and feels like your laying down in it. O well.
