agree, this is very annoying
i also don't like:
-the door mounted speaker covers are right where my foot swings out when exiting...CRACK!
-the windshield squeaks if i don't put in ice wax every 4-6 mos. and then the extra wax leaks out and gets all over the paint hours later when i drive it.
-no matter what method i use to close the front trunk i feel like i'm damaging something.

Hi
My biggest gripe is the Tiptronic box, in that it has four gears and needs five. The cost of parts you have to expect. It is not a "cheap" car. Pedals need to be close together in order to heel and toe. Try some Lotus cars for really close pedals.
Also with sunroofs, I just have to have one.
What I find hard to understand is how so many US cars do not have the sports seats. I know the big bolsters can get in the way but once you are in they are soooo much better. As far as leather quality is concerned my drivers seat has done 185k miles and the leather is good. I have seen plenty of 15 year old Japanese cars where the leather is like paper and coming apart all over the place.
All the best

Plastic rear window in the cab is hard to understand. American car companies even had glass back then. It must be a German thing because my '02 Z3 has plastic too.
