I came home from a night out and I was pretty drunk. I was going inside through the garage, and I, for whatever reason, decided to go in the drivers seat of the Z and just sleep. My Cabin lights are set to off, unless I manually turn them on. I decided to turn one light on. Hours passed and I wake up and I was 100% certain that my light was left on but was off when I woke up. I started to freak out thinking I killed the battery. I turned the car to Acc mode and everything seemed fine; the light turned back on since I initially had it off. So, I then thought and or figured that it had some sort of safety future for leaving your cabin lights, radio, etc on.

And may I add..I slept really well in the drivers seat. haha
then Again I am like 5'5 :P

Are you sure it is wise to be bragging about how drunk you were on a public forum when your age states you as 20? Californians... As many others have stated, the windows roll down feature is great. Perfect for airing the car out on hot days.

I'm hoping this blows your mind as well. If you use the actual manual key on the door and hold it in the lock position, the windows will roll up on their own.

My favorite minor feature? The rear strut brace (is that what it's called?) that doesn't occupy the entire hatch like the 350Z.

Looking at my white map lights light up my red seats when I'm walking toward the car and unlock it

the two body lines that start on the hood and continue on the roof.

Jordo! · 07-06-2013, 04:52 PM

The auto up/down on both windows. Never had that before.

Push Button Start
Key fob windows down
Illuminated Kick Plates

It really is the small things that make it extra special. My favorite thing overall is when I walk up to it in a parking lot knowing it's mine

I'm sure it was mentioned, but never having to take my keys out of my pocket!

I never noticed I missed these things until I borrowed another car for a few days:

The auto up/down windows. <-- I love those things.
Heated side mirrors. <-- Drives away the morning dew in under a minute.

Whoa, wait a minute, is there a switch for that or do the mirrors heat up automagically? I had no idea we had heated mirrors!

You have a 2009... Like me... We don't have them... ;-(

Yeah like DEpoint said I think they started including it in the 2010+ model years. I don't know if that's across all trim levels. I just press rear defrost and it turns on the sides and rear. The easy way to tell is to look for a little emblem printed in the corner of your mirrors. It's a rectangle with wavy heat lines in it.

I like the night time cabin light that's orange. No other car that I have had has a night time running cabin light.

nmjaxx9 · 07-07-2013, 11:19 AM

I like the automatic feature.

tiger123 · 07-07-2013, 12:17 PM

Pretty much everything has been covered.

I really like the three eyeballs staring at me. Oil Temp/Batter/Clock. Love the angle these are set at.

BTW, every little/big thing is awesome about this car.

The headlights on this car lights up the darkest streets. and i love the highbeams for flashing some cabbie trying to cut me off in my lane for a fare.
