I noticed the first time I test drove it a couple of years ago.

Down force ... that's my story and I'm sticken' with it.

I agree about the mirrors. When I first got the car I almost pulled out in front of a car at a 4 way stop just because I couldn't see him. I'm used to it now and pay close attention. They really are bigger than necessary though. Then again, I drive my girlfriend's Miata quite often and it's wing mirrors are too small.

My complaint is just with the gas prices. With the actual car? None really. I do wish the base model brakes were just a little nicer looking. Even on the 2014s, they look like they have been sitting in a bucket for years waiting to be used (which may not be far from the truth)

Default My 2nd complaint

I actually do have a 2nd complaint about this care, minor but still a disappointment. I bought a 2014 coupe with Sport package so I end up with the base radio which seemed fine to me.. AM-FM-CD with 4 speakers. That's how it's described by Nissan literature.. Fine with me. When I get the car I'm thinking the rear speakers aren't working. I go into the radio settings to see if the FADE setting is set correctly. It was, dead center (50% front-50% rear) THEN I realize the 4 speakers they speak of are all FRONTS, one in each door, 1 in each upper corner of the dash. Really? What a crappy set up that is....

...and my experience with the Bose set up is that the two tiny subwoofers over the spare aren't much help...

I found in the best cars you don't even want to turn the radio on..............

This car is just a daily driver for me. Nothing special. It has speaker grilles in the side panels behind the seats and the radio has a FADE control. SO, why should I not want or expect rear speakers?
And why shouldn't it have AC?

You guys apparently have different ideas of your intended use for these cars than I do.. Just an inexpensive car to get from A to B for me...
