The 04/05/06 may, but the 07 doesn't (unless several of us are missing something). There's a sliding rail on the console itself. The armrest moves forward only. Oh well.

bb70092, yeah, knew about the outlet there. Supposedly you plug your bluetooth phone into it. lol, funny, my phone is on my belt. I'm not putting it in there. Did you play with the "memopad" function of the bluetooth in the car?

LOL, my GF leaves me "love notes" on there. My kiddo loves it when the car "talks" to us. hahahaha, well, simple things impress 12 yr old children.

Too bad the cubbyhole below my radio is soo small and useless. I can't even put my badge for work in there.

The hidden compartment you are talking about is for your cell phone cord. You plug in your cord down there, run the cord up through the bottom of the box (there is a little snap there that can pop open) and the out through the nitched arm rest part.

Pretty cool huh? A neighbor showed me that.

What do you mean by the "cell phone cord"? A cell phone is supposed to be cordless. Do you mean the cell phone charger cord?

I thought it was a power outlet just as the one below the audio controls in the front. Can't I use both of them for a number of different things such as running a laptop, charging a cell phone, etc.?

My 2003 Chevy Trailblazer LTZ does that also and it wasn't an option...

You know, honestly...I'm not sure if it's standard on Acura's. I'll have to ask TripleGmax if his TL has it.

I just ran across something I didn't know last night. After I turned off the car last night, I hit hit the window button and the windows could roll up or down. Once I locked the doors, the windows woudn't roll up or down. That's nice if you've forgoten to roll all of the window up.

Your laptop won't hide nicely in your armrest if you need to leave the car for a second.

Nice attempt at being a noobie though.

The Passenger mirror tilt is more handy than the drivers tilt unless you parallel park often.

(This was also in the manual, of which I read EVERY page, and even watched the DVD on my car the night I drove it home)

Another feature for those who don't know.... How many folks set their "zone" on their mirror compass?
Have 05 Max doesnt work on mine. Think its an extra feature. Or I'm doing it wrong.

On the 2007 Maxima's the center arm rest only moves forward! It has no up down feature! This was for previous models.

I didn't think I was crazy. Ok, maybe that doesn't confirm or disprove I'm not crazy, but it does confirm that the armrest in our 07's doesn't go up/down.

Atlpinoy, I don't know the interior of the 05, but it surely is there on the 07. Pretty slick feature.

I just looked up in the brochure. For the 07, it was part of one of these packages. P S D E. I have P S and D, which is why I have the autotilt mirrors.
