I don't need them and I don't want them.

2nd, RFTs, 'nuff said.

3rd, the stereo could be better.

4th, an adjustable headrest. For me it sits too far back so I never use it.

Not the kind to go to the track, I just do some occasional spirited driving, so the performance is more than enough to keep me happy. But I certainly wouldn't argue with you guys over any mechanical enhancements you deem important.

EDIT: Oh yeah, the cupholders suck.
Replace the RFTs with non-RFTs It is 70% of the problem related to ride quality, float and understeer.

The premium stereo also sucks big time compared to anything I have owned in 20 years.

I'd also like immediate response when I step on the gas.
