Clear turn-signals for the American-Spec! Oh well, too late, done that last week with my trusty heat-gun. Other than that, hmmm, get all that damn rattles out of my cabin and some better seats which don't screw up your spine in a hours time. Latez!

Glass rear window?

Oh ! There's a hidden soft top under the tonneau cover! I just found it! I didn't realize the the top went up!

See there. We're one up on the Shelby Cobra. And that's a $500,000 car!

How many times have you turned the car off with the windows down, and then realized that you have to turn the ignition back on to get them up?

I love this car, but the Seran Wrap rear window is pathetic. Maybe if I could fold myself up enough to clean it properly it wouldn't be so bad. I liked the one suggestion of more gauges too.

I can live with the little quirks of this car. After all, it is a sports car, years from now we'll all talk about that damn plastic window and crappy stereo with fondness...

The only change I would make that would maximize my driving experience would be paddle shifters. They tried so hard to give us a Formula One experience here the stick just seems out of place to me.

Flame on.

I would have to agree with more gauges suggestion. I don't like guessing with warning lights. At least add an oil pressure and oil temp.
Also, ditto on the rear window being plastic. But I'm used to that driving old british sport cars.

The plastic rear window doesn't bother me at all 98% of the time. But the 2% of the time that I have the top up it drives me crazy. I've done everything I can to keep it clean and I've used three different products on it and I still can't tell what's behind me. The window in this car was in worse shape after one month than my Miata's window was after six years.

Don't get me wrong I love my car but I want to be able to see out of the back window.

I'd like a glass rear window.
