Surprising things you learned about the SC long after buying it

With the recent storms on the west coast, I moved the windshield wiper down to the second notch. When at a complete stop, the windshield wiper will wipe ever 2-3 seconds; whereas if you're moving, the wiper will continuously wipe.

I have an 03 and now that you mention it I don't know how to get my head light washers to work. I do have a manual so I guess I'll look it up. I have noticed when I have my radio on it appears to get louder when I pick up speed and the sound goes down when I come to a stop. I assumed it was to compensate for road noise. Has anybody ever heard of this?

Ethanol free gas
After using ethanol free gas in my 2003 I get 10% higher gas mileage ( now 22.8 city ) and the car does not have that nasty lag condition. No lag after the first fill up and now after 10 tanks, still no lag. I was wondering if the computer would adjust to the new gas after a while and start lagging again but it has not.
Very happy with the results.

What part of the country do you live in? I don't think that I've seen ethanol free gas in a while.

My guess is that when they go to 15% ethanol they will have to offer it. Cars made prior to 2000 should not use 15% due to the high corrosive mix.

Thanks Rudy. Yep, nothing remotely close to the DFW area that I could see. Bummer.

So, I know we don't have cooled seats but I did find out that there is an AC vent under the steering wheel. It can be rotated down to blow on your feet, or rotated up to blow into the driver seat. Today was a hot day around here but some AC up the shorts kept me cool. Haha.

I found out today that YES, this is actually a sports car and not just a luxo top down cruiser
I went out for a drive today and ran the car through a local canyon (Carbon Canyon for any SoCal people on here) and dropped it down into third and ran the whole canyon in third. The response was incredible!!
try it, you'll like it
