Why would they piss R&D money on something

I wouldn’t say it’s less effective than the manual flip down kind. And you don’t get the weird distortion effect with an auto dimming mirror. It’s a perk of the BRZ to get more features. Just enjoy your car, it’s one of the best out there. [emoji106]

But then they wouldn't have anything to whine about to their daddies.

i like the compass. because when i get lost on backroads, i head south for north. and there's nothing better than getting lost on backroads.

I don't think my mirror actually works. When I drive in the dark, I'm going to toggle the power. Your saying I should see a difference..

OR, just take a flashlight out there and test the mirror - :)

It might be more obvious during the day to cover the front facing (toward the windshield) photosensor with your finger or a piece of black tape. The mirror should gradually darken during the next minute or so if it's working.

GrantedTaken has also started a thread describing the brake pads as the "worst design ever". Seriously, if you are so unhappy with the design of this automobile, you might consider selling it and buying something that is more suited to your design criteria. Perhaps a Toyota Camry? It's pretty well designed, and very popular....

GrantedTaken has a whole lot of dumb posts in this forum....

You sure about that? I have a feeling this isn't his only user ID.

I think ‘GrantedTaken’ is actually Akio Toyoda trolling us
