I dont work so have no commute, yet I have still managed to put on over 4500 miles on her since April 17th when it was purchased.

Well... that's because you don't work!

My wife and I did our shopping in the Z for well over a year. It actually had more room in the back than our G37 had in the trunk. I never minded it as it had plenty of room for our needs. But then again we are empty nesters.

I guess I could move my cargo box out of the middle of the trunk

I have surprised myself with the amount of stuff I can fit in there. Lets see. Four over-sized tires. I once went shopping at Sam's Club and bought a whole bunch of stuff, including a pressure washer. I was able to do a CBE, HFC, and Coilovers, all in shipping boxes. One can definitely make stuff fit.

Pffff...8 track all the way! I miss the experience of having the music distort, speed up, then stop completely, and THEN pull the cartridge out then spend 10 minutes pulling the broken tape out and off the interior rollers to find the splice had come apart, and THEN try to straighten all the tape, resplice and reroll tape back into cartridge...wait, maybe I don't miss that after all. But it was the early 70's and I made $1.60 an hour so one had to do what one had to do

Here's a 'complaint' that I noticed when I upgraded to a new cell phone (although it probably sounds more like a 1st world problem). I just got an LG G3, and it's too big to fit in the cup-holder!

That would really piss me off, as the cup holder is also where I place my cell during drives. I've been after a OnePlus One, which also has a 5.5" screen. I never considered that it wouldn't fit in the cup holder.

Yea, it's annoying. I usually just end up putting it in the center 'cubby' thing above the radio (where the GPS would go). I don't use it when I'm driving, so it's not that big of a deal, but still!

aszyd · 07-30-2014, 10:55 PM

Another first world problem. I have the Nav, so I can't just toss stuff in the cubby... I use the center compartment.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm not quite receiving the proper amount of "smug air of superiority" quite yet.

But yes, absolutely, when I buy a base model + sport package, I don't expect to open the door where the navigation goes and find no navigation system any more than I expect to find no speakers behind every single possible mounting location. Then again, I'm stupid and unreasonable like that, it's one of my faults.

Calm down big boy... You are the one using the word cheap, not me. I used the word "inexpensive" which this car is relatively speaking for a 2dr 300+ hp couple at under $30k. I wasn't saying it in a bad way at all.
As for the radio, the thing has a fade control to balance front to rear speakers but has no rear speakers. I guess when you read that YOU decided to use the word "cheap".
Only thing I can believe in your reply is the final sentence. Only you would know that! I'll believe you if you say so.
