How dare you compare lawyers' billing practices to those of car dealers!!!

I change my own oil and take along other work to keep me busy while waiting for trials and hearing to begin.- no double billing!!

Have a beer while the oil drains give it at least 45 minutes.

Now, if you were to compare lawyers to say, lion tamers.......

I know the thread is almost on downhill spiral ..:yet I think it's approproate to whine about, probably the only thing that sucks about the car,....it's useless sun visors...small..no extensions etc.. I know it's not an suv but porsche could've made these more useful...just saying...I adore my car though!

Have had trim less hatch glass vehicles in the past and have owned an 80 and 94 928 for some time now. No rattles and nice to have easy access to rear cargo area. T

I really only "dislike" it one time a month...when I have to write that check. With that said, there are a few issues that I wish weren't present.

Creeks and rattles.
Lack of undercoating or sound absorption under the back end resulting in hearing every pebble that gets bounced up against the engine and exhaust.
Occasional inability to connect with BT between phone and PCM.
Seats are a bit narrow.

Additionally, I wish there were things I see on other cars that existed on the car.
HUD - This would be very helpful for "spirited" driving. Wife's M4 shows both speed and rpm.
Backup camera - my 2015TTS has this, but was on my son's 2014 Mustang as standard.
Better data integration on PCM - ability to look up POI on Google, etc.

With all of that said, the 2014 C2S is pretty amazing car. The 2015 TTS is absolutely unbelievable!

When you connect via cable (not BT) and aha is active, go in NAV menu and you'll see Google options, including POI. This is present assuming you have "online services" option.

I found the side view mirrors to be too small. Not as large as the 997's.
