I do a walk around before I get into my car.
Once I'm actually in the car, things get interesting.
1) Usually dig stuff out of pockets while brake+start button happens
2) Plug phone into aux
3) Adjust climate control

I usually put the windows down with the remote to save a step after I get into the car. This has saved me seconds over the last month and a half when it has been warm enough for the windows to be down.

Almost exactly what I do except I wait for the engine to start making it's way toward operating temp. ie LED moves at least one spot towards center.

I always find it interesting to see people drivings habits.

Besides him not signaling which was annoying, the 4 times we got into the car, he adjusted his seat every time which I thought was weird. I know once I have my sweet spot I don't dare change it lol.

Also didn't put his seatbelt on till about 2 mins into driving.

I was curious whats the first 3 things people do when they step into their Z.

For me:

- Push Start
- Seat Belt On
- VDC OFF

I let RPM's come back down to 1K, Ipod kicks in on the nav then drive away

Yes....its a slow Friday here at work lol

1) sit back and smile
2) Press the 'GOBUTTONFRACKINGENGINESTARTTHISMONSTERMACHINEANDL ETSROLLALREADY' button; commonly referred to as the 'start' button
3) smile bigger in anticipation while I slowly lean forward to turn off the 'OMGWEAREGOINGTOCRASHIMMEDIATELYGODHELPUSALL' button; commonly referred to as 'VDC' button

1. Seat belt on
2. Start car
3. Turn on WAZE app (only, in the morning) or WAZE app + Aux cable and start Pandora/Music (on my way home from work) - This also let's the car idle for a bit and the RPMs to drop.
