Biggest complaint after my test drive was the manual telescoping steering wheel. You have to be a body builder to extend it. $50k+ car should have power telescoping IMO. Not enough to deter from buying it but it will be annoying.

 

I found this to be an annoyance until I got used to the car and all of it's other amazing attributes. Mine is actually quite easy to move around and I am by no means a body builder. Maybe the car you drove was stiff for some reason??

 

I was probably the first to move it and imagine I will leave it in the fully extended position anyways.

 

And let's consider the lack of that horrible Mercedes curse a blessing! The auto cooling-off annoys the hell out of me. I put it on max, let my butt decide when it's time to back off, not the car!

Edit: Sorry, I hadn't read the entire thread - apparently some people agree with me

 

LOL.

I must be the only one who likes this feature. What would be ideal is if you could change this as a preference in the computer.

 

I just realized this, but have to add to the list and I must say it's the most annoying of all in a 60k car.

No AUTO down or up for passenger side window. Do they save little things like this for the RS version?

 

Ooooh, that will suck. My Z has that for cripes sake.

 

i agree that there are annoying noise in the cabin...

The noise has suddenly disappeared from my S5.

New findings... Paint chips already on the hood. Man it hurts!!

 

You must've gotten a lemon.
Mine has auto up and down from BOTH driver and passenger window consoles.

 

Strange thing is... It works now just fine on both sides of the car.

 

I was going to say!!! That would be super odd because in my 02 Audi TT, I have this feature, and Im pretty sure they wouldnt eliminate it from their newer model cars.

No power seats or any of that other junk tho. I missed the power seat I had in my previous car but it was a trade off.
