the body roll, and the tranny, its a good tranny but it sucks that the bearing will go its just a matter of time assuming you have 95-98 tranny.

and the cup holders are very akward.

I'm going with FWD and the lumbar support - using it only makes the seat squeak like crazy.

No rattles here

Can't decide...either the 9004 headlamps, crappy cupholders or the auto tranny.

Why is everyone down on the cup holder?? I really like it. Have you driven a car with one of these flimsy pop out ones? Sure ours wont hold your 64 oz supergulp, but it does hold your cell phone.

1. the huge wheel gap
2. slippery leather seat (my gf keeps falling off when making a turn)
3. very den gauge lights (looks nice during the day being all white then at night its just a plain den black gauges)
4. highs on bose system are great but wheres the freakin bass
5. headlight + foglight = crap
6. auto tranny going wacko when trying to race (downshifting taking to long when floored)
7. the BODY ROLL
8. bose head unit being way to low (gotta keep looking down making driving unsafe)
9. cant fold back seats down WTF
10. the whispling noise from engine
11. weak gas mileage (i get about 300 miles on a full tank and drive mostly highway too)

other then these, im very happy
