the ones mentioned are all good. the one I haven't seen is how incredibly UNsensitive (in-sensitive? whichever) the turn signal is. damn thing only shuts off automatically on turns 90 degrees or more. Prlly once a month I end up looking like some damn granny rolling down the road for a mile w/my blinker on.

the car that i used to drive before this (rsx s) was shorter. CIVIC Si, s2000, celica gts, evo mr, 02+ m3. just irrititated me that the i upgraded to a better car that has a longer throw than my old car. and, that has a longer throw than a freakin civic.
and that's why the very first thing i bought for my car is an AFE short shifter.
stew - i didn't know it was possible to aim the windshield washers, thanks.

I think you can aim all windshield washers on all cars. Can be a lil' tricky and take a few attempts to get 'em as you like. I knew a guy who would point one straight up (missed the windshield completely) to squirt on folks tailgating on the free way.

interesting. maybe that is a new feature on the 06. the 04 came with three keys.. maybe another 06 owner can clear this up..

Minor complaint
The BOSE stereo is a big disappointment. Where's the bass?
Rearward visibilty is sad, not that we spend much time in reverse.
Otherwise, what a great car!

Blind spot requires me to look over my right shoulder.
4 me BOSE gets a 7 out of 10 for an OEM system. Cranked up to 30, the bass gets distorted, but it is an OEM system. I had a kenwood head/infinity components/JL sub/6 chnl PPI amp long ago which was only OK for an aftermkt system. It easily could beat the bose. BOSE speakers are made in mexico. I dont know why people buy BOSE anything.
If I could I would have bought the GT package with out the stereo. But since its there i'll live with it. I think Honda has better OEM systems (they use Alpine head units).
BTW I luv my 8.

The only thing iI think Mazda dropped the ball on is the oil pressure gauge.
Any other "quibbles" that you may have --- you simply need to remember the amazing price this car is offered at --- considering it is a true one- of a kind car.
