32. When you turn the fan speed on the climate control on from the off position, the default is set so the A/C turns on so you have to push it to turn off the a/c compressor. Should be the other way around unless you are using defrost.

I just make sure to turn it off (not leave it on Auto or an on setting) and it doesn't bother me.

If I turn mine off with the A/C on, it turns back on with it. If I turn it off with no A/C, it keeps it off when I turn the fan on. Have you tried that?

33. (And somewhat related to door heft)...I can't get in or out of my car without bumping my feet against either the door or the kickplate. Happens. Every. Time.

34. Always pulling up the gas pump on the WRONG SIDE of the car. Every other car that I've driven has the fuel door on the driver's side, but NO! So, you have to back up and move to the right side without feeling like a real maroon

. I've only had the car two years and you'd think I'd learn, but NO!

most of the German have the fuel-cap on the passenger side too....

I think it's a good idea thus you have more room to open the driver's door...

Every car shows you where to fill up. All mine over the years have been passenger side (German and Japenese) but retarded Americans.

#39. When the battery is pulled you lose your A and B trip's! I use B for oil change intervals. Now I have to write them down

You can go on the little computer and set the oil change intervals there. It will show you a warning when you reach the mileage you specified, from like 500 miles to 10,000.

My main complaint is that you can only fit one regular sized slut or two miniature sluts in the car at any given time. Cramps my style.

Everytime I start my Z the little green light for the garage door opener turns on. I hate turning it off everytime (the little light annoys me).

It's Japan/UK spec thats why, Nissan doesn't change the design for US spec. I think it's a perk though. Most of the gas stations that have right side pumps are usually open, so I can slide right up and gas up in a jiffy.

35. How one little pebble in the wheel well can sound like your shaking a metal coffee can full of rocks......

At 6'4 I don't "get" in, I fall in.

It took me a lot of re-reading your post to understand what you were trying to say, but I think you mean, if you turn your CAR off leaving the fan speed on, the A/C will be off or on depending on where it was when you turned the car off?

That does work but prior to turning off my car I like to turn everything else off; when it is cold out, I don't want to start my car and have cold air blowing on me before the car warms up, and when its hot out I don't want that gush of hot air blowing on me at startup as well.
Also, I never want to start my car with the air compressor on, it just seems like unnecessary strain on startup. I rather get everything fired up, then turn on the accessories.
