I didnt realize that the actual key slides out of the FOB until reading the manual. You keep the key part and give the FOB to a valet. If you

If you put the key in the door and hold to lock, it rolls the windows up. If you hold to unlock, it rolls them down.

Fuel door locks when the car doors lock. Any procedure that unlocks the doors will unlock the fuel door too.

Is there a manual trunk release somewhere inside the cockpit, or is the only way to open the trunk to be standing outside the vehicle? Either I'm an oblivious jackwad and missed it in my owner's manual, or I'm an oblivious jackwad for not looking for it when testing the vehicle before purchase. Seems like such a basic thing... To be able to pop the trunk for a passenger who has just exited the vehicle...

Am I missing something really obvious?

Nope - you must press the button on the outside of the car below the center of the hatch. There's no way to open the hatch from the inside of the car.

I haven't checked the 370 for this but the 350 had an emergency rear hatch release somewhere in the trunk area. Can't remember exactly where though and I don't know if the 370 has it.

You guys are kidding, right? From page 3-18 of the owner's manual:

SECONDARY REAR HATCH RELEASE
The secondary rear hatch release mechanism
allows opening the rear hatch in the event of
discharged battery or emergency.
The release handle is located under the cargo
room floor. To open the rear hatch from the
passenger compartment, perform the following
procedure.
1. Remove the cargo floor mat.
2. Find the rear hatch release handle *1 as
shown in the illustration.
3. Free the release handle that is fixed with
velcro.
4. Firmly pull the release handle until the rear
hatch releases.

Is this really easy and convenient to do? I've not tried it, but my complaint was that there wasn't an easy button to press in the c0ckpit to pop the trunk. This seems more like "Your battery died" than user convenience. It's nice to know it's there, but still not very useful.

I agree. My 300ZX has the release right next to the driver-side door on the floor - a perfect location and extremely convenient. I have to open my trunk frequently for inspection where I work and its a huge pain to have to get out of the car and open it for the guards who think I'm a giant douche. There needs to be a button

...and if you push and hold the lock button long enough, the top will go down on the roadster. It's designed to let all of the hot air out of the car before you climb in. Very snazzy!

There's no way that can be the battery life of my phone. My phone is full bars and the one on the car has maybe 1 bar.

Not sure about you guys, but the battery meter that is shown on my Nav screen does accurately show the battery life of my iPhone (although I believe its resolution is only 3 bars). Then there is the signal strength indicator which is also accurate for me.

I would believe that. I don't have the Nav. I'm not sure what is means. I've seen it at full strength once. I'll check it tonight after I fully charge my phone and see if it shows full strength.
