Interesting Tidbits about our cars

So we know that if you pull the inside door handle twice the door will unlock.

We also know there is a key slot by the driver's side of the back seat to open the trunk on a Vert.

Found this next one by accident. Parked the car and locked it as I was walking away with the fob. I took maybe 2-3 more steps and the car unlocked by itself. Hit the fob again and locked it, couple of seconds the car unlocked again. I went back to the car and discovered I hadn't got the door shut all the way. Opened and shut the door completely and it locked like normal.

I am sure there are more. Post them if you know them.

Didn't know that, could be disastrous. Door not fully closed, car unlocked.

lol. yeah, try to lock your driver door with it open at all and it will just unlock itself again.

I know the 5th gens look awesome! Do any of the 6th gens do that?

Also. The passengers side mirror is longer than the drivers side mirror.

Only if the key is in the ignition.


Otherwise when you press the button down on the drivers door it also locks the passenger door.

Actually, the first pull unlocks it. The second pull opens it.

Are you referring to the seat back map pockets? I don't know of any other...
