Blind spot........

Just angle the mirrors out past your rear fenders and your fine.

Exactly. If the mirrors are adjusted properly you will have no blind spot issues. All vehicles to my immediate left and right transition from my rear view to my side view and with larger vehicles I can see them in both simultaneously.

I'm with ya. I have mine adjusted for full coverage. I haven't had an issue with a quick lane change to the right since I bought the car.

Wshade is spot on. What I initially thought was a blind spot problem when I got the car quickly became a non-issue.

I strongly considered the convex side mirrors but dumped the idea in a week once I got used to using my side mirrors differently. You essentially use the inside rearview mirror for all vision behind the vehicle. Then you set up each outside mirror to allow you to see your blind spot. When they are properly positioned, you'll see a car approaching from behind in the center rearview, then as you lose view in the center mirror, the respective side mirror will pick it up and you'll see it there until it's past you.

The key is that the side mirrors have to be adjusted 'outwards' much further than you would on a regular car. Thus, you can't see the rearquarter of the car at all. You'll quickly adapt to the new setup and you'll see that a head turn to check the blindspot will be unnecessary from now on.

Exactly, to me, this is just "old school" sports car mirror set-up .......... the sides pick up where the rearview leaves off, and you have full coverage going. Pick an interstate that is 3 lanes wide in the same direction, get in the middle lane, and watch a vehicle pass you in the lanes to the right and left ...... the vehicle should transition smoothly from the rearview mirror to the outside mirror to your peripheral vision immediately to the right and left side of the Z.
