My only complaints are that I wish my garage was wider so I could open my door more.

Wind noise is a bit high, but as I came from older cars it wasn't a big adjustment for me. The speakers aren't very good so you do really have to crank the stereo when cruising at seventy, but that's easily fixed if I really cared. Truth is, I'm just as happy with the radio off listening to the car.
Just gonna toss this out in case it was missed. Make sure the stereo is set to FR-S and not TC as many were, then set it to DSP Loud and set the treble/bass to 3-4 which should work fine volume wise up to around 30-34 depending on your music type. Still no after market system, but it sounds much better.
