I really don't like the sound of the engine. It's the only thing I'm struggling with really.
Listened to all the exhaust clips and still not convinced any make it sound good... Just better than the naff stock sound
I've disabled the artificial sound and completely agree; GT86 was slightly better on this front.

Agree - there was a thread on this previously. I have flipped between having the fake noise on and having a resistor to the speaker (I made it easy to plug / unplug). For most of the time, the resistor suits me best - you still get some feedback and it's less like a Prius.

I've got a rather embarrassing confession so I thought I'd share here.
Even though I've had the car nine months (nine months to the day actually - which also means a BIg Birthday in three months but I digress), I find myself - far more often than I should - trying to open the boot by pressing the bloody rear camera.
Thank you for allowing me to share.

If the mirror caps had been body colour matched and the wheels a standard silver (ish) finish, it would have been Magnetite Grey for me. I also do not like the ducktail spoiler. Spending near 10% of the cost of the car on a valet and plastic film - jeez, just get in and dRive the f...... thing, hard. It's just a car, I don't care about residuals but there are very few new cars that would be a better 'investment'. I could go on, but I'll wait until I pick it up on Thursday, then run it in as normal, then take it on highland blasts and euro trips.

The upside is every time you do that you actually give the camera a little clean

First time taking it out in the dark last night.
Got about half a mile down the road before I realised I still had the wing mirrors turned in.

I’ve got ones on B pillars, behind the seatbelt, they’re pretty useful it seems as they’re scratched to hell. Better this than the vinyl

I get some consolation from seeing I am not the only person to scuff that plastic trim.Had the car since December and I'm pretty sure these blue stickers are going to stay here forever at this point
There's a clear one I've just noticed on that foot rest as well

The clear film on the foot rest - anyone notice how hard that is to take off?
Mine looked like the PDI had made an attempt and just left most of it on there, so naturally I had a go and that just does not want to come off. When it does it just tears into tiny slithers. Looks awful.

Yep, I just took the 'dead pedal' off and left it off.
Gives me more room to stretch my left leg.
