Several questions

Hey Al,

1- Front facing camera is missing, why?

2- Who designed the center console and how did it get approved? What's the right way of using it while driving, and not crashing?

3- Why does my music automatically start playing when i turn my car on? (Dodge has a feature to turn this off.. Why doesn't Chevy? )

4-Why no "oh sh!t" handles? at least for passengers.

5- I know the car is limited in space, but did the team try to even find more places to store keys/wallet/phone? Since getting to the center console is difficult enough, it also heats up extensively during heavy car use

1- Where? and when ? From GM themselves? Wasn't an option when I ordered mine. It should have been stock regardless.

3- You're missing the point. I shouldnt have to do extra steps. there should be an option to not do it, period.

4- Exactly, people want them

Frankly, I enjoy the reaction of my passengers when they reach for the "Oh Shit" handles and realize there are none. I'm a troll like that though.

Yeap.. it's added option "PDR" Performance Data Recorder.

i like the option .. get in the car, leave the phone in your pocket and it resumes from where you left off. i guess it's personal preference.

I assumed that he meant a camera near the bumper for parking assist. PDR is over the hood

Sorry for the confusion,

Front parking camera like the Corvette.

As far as music playing again, yes, personal preferences. Just some small details that other car makers have that I wish were in this car. It's nothing to add the functionality to the system.
