No interior fuel release, not a big deal to most but here in Orygun we're too stupid to pump our own gas, so we hire people even dumber to do it for us. Now I have to get out of the car every time to open the fuel door.

No interior trunk release. Why?

Blind spots are terrible and dangerous.

No back up camera. Hello this is a $40k car in the year 2009.

The fuel gauge area/info center is dumb and looks out of place.

When you have your high beams on the little blue light in the dash is very bright and distracting. And it does not dim with the rest of the panel. Why?

No fog lights.

It seems like there should be a bit more sound insulation in the rear near the tires as you get a lot of road noise and other noises from debris in the wheel wells.

These are mostly minor gripes. The car is fantastic to look at and drive. The navi is great as well. The Bose system is just fine for me. I buy new cars every 2 years or so, so I've had many, and I've never had one that was perfect, there were always a few things that drove me crazy, and this car is no exception.

wow... I dont think any of these are big issues. ITS A SPORTS CAR! The issues I see as an enthusiast, is the oil temp problem, AND THATS IT! this car is very well put toghether, and most people not looking for a Bentley GT would enjoy it.

The title of the thread (which I did not start btw) is called "370Z complaints so far." I listed my complaints. I did not ask for a lecture from you or anyone else what constitutes a sports cars. But since you mentioned it I went over to the Porsche website and perused the options on a 911 Targa which I think you would agree is much more of a "sports car" than ours. That said here are some of the options available:

*Self dimming memory mirrors
*Heated mirrors
*Sonar park assist
*Homelink
*Headlight cleaners
*Heated memory seats with ventilation
*Ipod/USB adaptor
*Cornering headlights

There are more, but you get the idea. There is no reason our car can't have many of the same options if people want them. Further some of the complaints I have are safety and not convenience related.
