Default Whats Your Biggest Pet Peeve

Whats your biggest pet peeve about the 370?

I love the car to death, but it drives me absolutely insane when I'm driving with the windows cracked (or open) I spray the windows with windshield washing fluid and the fluid rides right up and into the car!

Especially when I make a turn with the slightest crack in the window, the rain waterfalls in.

Only thing that might be a peeve of mine would be that it doesn't have a good place to put my sunglasses like my Inifniti G37S and G35S had (small cubby up on ceiling by mirror). Other than it's awesome. In fact the 370Z had an option you couldn't get on the G37S I don't think; suede inserts in the leather seats, which I vastly prefer to all-leather.

Lack of places to put phone and wallet, especially when you have a drink already. I need these things visually accesible or ill forget lol

And the auto lights on setting is 1st vs last on the turn switch

No usb on stock radio

That's fixed now, isn't it? I thought that the base 2015 I sat in had a USB port.

I don't even mind not having a USB. I think this should be wireless.

That's my peeve #2. If I can answer phone calls with Bluetooth, why can't I listen to music Bluetooth instead of having to use the aux

I'm pretty sure the USB port is in my center console.

This!!! I noticed the position for the last setting is perfect fit for my finger for the turn signals, when driving at night

plus:

1) The blinker is a bit too silent and if I'm not careful, can be left on.
2) Neither the NISMO logo in the tach (nor the red ring) glow at night. Does NISMO and regular Z34 tachs illuminate the same?
3) Very odd that there's no "SET" indication for cruise control.
4) seems like could eliminate at least 4-6 buttons on the NAV without any loss of functionality with duplication: zoom on the map already works with the center wheel on the map which loses those buttons. Brightness could re-use the wheel as well, which is at least two more, if not the on/off (which should be in the settings anyway). I like dedicated buttons but a bit busy.
5) I'd also like to make the info a bit more dense. On the STATUS, seems like the AC status could be integrated with the radio, mileage info without losing anything but some wasted empty space. Could also be on the status bar in the Map menu, as well. Wasted space to just look at AC.

Don't get me wrong, though, I love the car. These are my nitpicks.

Thought I was the only one who noticed the blinker being too quiet and I leave it on all the time. it also blinks too long after flicking it. if I flick it, it'll blink for about a good 3-4 turns.

I'll have to add a "me too" on the quietness of the blinker.
