i'm 1111 miles into it and i'll chime in with things that i noticed - some of them mentioned already, some of them not.
- obviously, the seatbelt buckles that ruin the door panels, and the goofy (pun intended) seatbelt straps
- laggy shifting on the automatic gearbox. you *have* to switch to sport if you need to speed up fast, and the manual mode is difficult to control, even after a lot of time dedicated to getting adapted. true, i'm coming from 3 years of honda s2000, but i'm comparing with the audi gearbox here. so much for having paddle shifters
- rattles and crickets, that disappear right when i decide to call the dealer. the way this community were talking about them, i'm not going to start crusades to get them fixed; i will continue to monitor the complaints here and only try to fix the problems that seem to become consistent.
- trunk space. you guys need to redesign this car for me and give me some more trunk space.
it's hard to believe that the only object that would fit in the trunk with the top down is an umbrella.
- center infosystem: disappointing screen resolution, way too many buttons with overlapping functions, and (unconfirmed) i may have ran across software bugs with it. also at this chapter, the xm receiver seems to have poor reception and / or a really short buffer: the audio is lost even when driving under a tree, or bridge, at speeds less than 30mph
i mentioned all of these as a wish to get them fixed. they're part of the things that make a great car an even better car.
