Thumbs up Another probing question...about your S

I know the car is great, and most are content with it as is...but

I'm talking something like a decent cup holder
or
more durable carpeting.
or
a tilt steering wheel.

or it could be mechanical, electrical, etc.

The sort of thing that would make the S even more of a pleasure to own/drive.

What would YOU tell Honda to change or improve?

Slighly more power
A folding hard top (Would be nice, but not sure how it would look)
In-dash navigation for USDM models
Better radio (Doesn't even have mp3 functionality)
Integrated antenna (so nothing sticks out of the car)

All I can really think about for now. I pretty much love the way the car came as is.

Longer trunk deck to go with the folding hardtop, which should provide better sound insulation and a more proportionatal looking car.

One gripe I had was when I saw the reflection of the car while driving, I thought the lengh of the hood was fine and the doors flowed well, but damn if Honda didn't just chop off like 6'-12" from the trunk.

I agree with the intergrated antenna.

And I'd like to add factory Turbo would be sweet.

Slightly more power out of the box
Better sound insulation
Folding hardtop
In-dash navigation
One-touch up&down on all windows
Traction control (I have an '05)
Slightly better material in the interior

I realize I'm being picky and with all of those things above it'd probably push the price of the car close to $40K. Would I pay extra to get the extras? Probably.

1. Lower Seats
2. OEM hardtop to look like the Mugen hardtop
3. Seat Heaters


Just little nit picking.
