- I think there is a chance the insulated windshield might impact radar detector/ez pass; however, I rarely use easy pass (I'll stick my arm out the window if needed ) and I'll probably get a remote detector Installed

- you can get the heated windshield w/o insulated glass. That may not be as much of an interference issue. I'm hoping it will work as well as I've seen it work on the range rover and help prevent ice build up

If the new 8 speed is as good as they say, then maybe the buttons will suffice instead of the paddles. The remote detector is a good thought, with this beast you don't want to go unprotected!
