i'd like to see a 6 spd manual for the diehards as well.
this was the only reference to a manual transmission; granted that 90%+ of sales would be automatics but it would be good to offer a manual and maybe an SMG gearbox.

Oh and make Sirrius or XM a factory option like everyone else and add the iPOD adapter.

I agree with most here, but I want to add:

Optional all leather steering wheel.

And regarding the front door plastic panels, I get annoyed by the sharp angle of the plastic near the window. I like to rest my left arm on the panel where it meets the botton of the window. Because of the sharp angular shape of the plastic, and only about a 1 inch flat surface, it's not very comfortable to rest one's arm on it for any length of time. Not very ergonomic. A slight redesign to round the edge and/or provide a larger flat surface would be nice.

Make that STANDARD all leather steering wheel - optional wood steering wheel.

Seems to be only available in Japan through the G-link service.

For JDM only.

Although I like the look of the cabin lighting, it sure would be nice if the spot and other buttons were back illuminated. If it's dark, and only the door overhead pin point lights are on, and you wish to turn on the individual spot for driver's or passenger's seat, you can't see the buttons or which one to press.
