Daily driving my car for 1.5 years in all weather, my pet peeves



Decent blindspot. Understandable because this is a 2 door coupe where the b and c pillar are right next to each other, with a huge c pillar so this is unavoidable. Just have to be extra careful and keep a mental memory of what is around you, especially in 3 lane roads. If I am in the far left lane, a car in the far right lane can be completely invisible.



Window motors are weak, easily get stuck in the winter with any minor ice build up. Also because the door has no upper frame, if the window is frozen it can't do the little roll down when you open the door. Need to be very careful opening the door to prevent damaging the window if it gets stuck.



Rear defogger seems to work slower than other cars. Would have been nice to have a rear wiper for rain and minor snow.



Would be nice if there was an external manual lever to open the trunk instead of relying solely on the key fob or interior button



Typical low ground clearance issues, easy to get stuck in the snow. Just keep a small shovel in the car in addition to a snow brush


Car doesn't seem to have as much turning radius as my last car. Just harder to maneuver in smaller parking lots.



Paying premium fuel sucks (But at least it's just a 2.0)


Again with such a low car, if a truck or SUV is behind me at night I will be completely blinded. No point flicking the rear view mirror because the side mirrors are still bright.





Overall no deal breaker issues. This car is a good DD and also for weekend cruises, perfect car for those who aren't able to (Or want to) have more than 1 vehicle
