1. For the price of a 2011 why in the hell dont they come with hood shocks?? Thanks..now my radiator cover is screwed up from the hood prop.
2. Who in the hell designed the rear lights and the rear decklid cause it wasn't the same person. I hate the fact the decklid flares out at the edges.
3. No spare tire for the 19" rims.....make a bigger trunk to hold it...errr.
4. Going from first to second I feel like something is grabbing. Not sure if this is suppose to be this way or not, heard different stories.

Love this car!

Size isn't the issue, since the overall tire diameter is essentially the same between the 18" and 19" rims/tires.

The issue was the spare tire wouldn't fit on the front wheels of cars with the Brembo package.

A couple things: as already mentioned the useless cupholders, the adjustment handle on my seat that keeps popping off and the hood that starts fluttering like it wants to launch itselt into orbit anytime I go above 70ish.

I guess my biggest complaint is that they could have went ahead gave the 05-10 cars that awesome 400+ HP coyote 5.0 and then everybody wouldn't be stripping em down and trading em off like they were plagued.

Oh and a little padding on the sides of the console where your knee leans against it, if your a tall guy like me anyway, would of help me a lot on long drives.

edit: oh and auto headlamps, I've just gotten spoiled to em in other vehicles, like almost every other car.
This might help with your knee problem.

How come?

aug '10 i began the eforce install. had some issues and since i was getting out of the army i couldn't spend the money to have it looked at. now i'm deployed in afghan so had the car taken in to get fixed, but i'm still deployed till next summer. there's a slim chance the roads will be clean and dry at christmas when i'm on vacation

I concur, I noticed it cornering the Savannah River bridge coming into South Carolina from Geargia a few days ago at 110-115 mph. Got a little hairy!!
