Sunglasses holder? Wear them?
kind of presumptuous to think that people only drive when it is sunny and daylight.

where do you put them @ night or on cloudy days?

mine only stay in the car so when I don't need them they should be in a holder.

won't put them in the center console to get scratched up, and they don't fit in the console in their case cause the console is to damn small.

glove box, yeah maybe if it isn't locked, cause if it is and the car is running you are SOL.

2010-2011 had a manual passenger seat, power for passenger in SS wasn't standard until 2012..

Nothing tbh, my car is perfect (well, I wouldn't mind being able to use the radio in NZ and load other map/country support to the nav system)

I think I saw a how too floating around..


the person who asked about it probably wasn't aware it is not available.

I just found out that it became standard in 2012, I thought it had always been.. wasn't aware that it wasn't until about 2 weeks ago..

Another thread just reminded me of an issue I have with these cars: Put the spare tire back! Surely GM can provide a light-weight "temporary" spare in the trunk. The idea of an air pump with sealant is ridiculous.

A dark racing green! Something like the new Rainforest Green that they just added to the Cruze line....With my luck though they will finally offer it next model year since I just finally caved in and got a Bluray Metallic last week.

Mine has the spare tire, but it was a listed option that cost extra on the dealer sticker.

I have to agree with the sun visors. My fiancée laughs every time she pulls it down and calls them "cute little visors" but says they are pretty useless for how small they are.

auto climate control should be as standard today as power windows and A/C. you can buy a cheap $10 thermostat for your house that does the same thing... it's not rocket science. I can't imagine anybody aruguing for manual controls... do you also like crank windows and no air conditioning? Challenger and Mustang offer climate control... cheap cars like Chevy's Cruze offers it.

A standard spare tire would be nice also!

Its not hard at all. Just your hand is closer to the raido knobs themself when it is on the shifter making it less safe to use. Moving up to the wheel to change the station is less convienet and that switch on the wheel is for convenience. I never use it. its useless. Drive a car with it on the left then you will see what I mean. It makes much more sense on the left. That is the only thing beside paint quality I would change on this car. Like someone said Previous Can't make everyone Happy. I love my car.

Should be keeping your hands on 10 and 2 when you're not shifting, anyway.

So give me a good reason why. "Because everybody else does" isn't good enough because somebody had to be first so the copycats would have something to copy.

Why not? If nothing else, high-tech approaches to things that can be done mechanically takes most DIY'ers out of the picture while removing $100/hour from their wallets. How is that an unquestionably good thing?


Quote:

Actually, I do. Did just fine with them all the way from pre-school to retirement.

Quote:

Until 8, maybe 10 years ago even this was do-able (and I did without in one car up until fairly recently).

YES.

Even T-spares are a PITA and not really suitable when you get a drive wheel flat on a car with either a limited slip differential or AWD.
