2) They've always done that. I thought like you did at first, but I got used to it.

4) HATE that bitch. Hard to work on too...

6) I like the Bose stuff... I don't know why you'd have to upgrade it...

6.2) Yeah that nav system is awesome, and it's updateable too.

Something about those rims and the yellow rotors seems to detract from the otherwise pure sex of it IMHO. Sweet ride though.

Here's what I think about all that garbage..

1. The "polished ebony" trim is a dust magnet and I'm told scratches very easily. I will address it sometime. (Cover it with Clearbra film...?)
2. Steering wheel controls are nice, but the stereo volume needs to be on the left side and the cruise control on the right. (I'm left handed, maybe that's better for me?)
3. Most of the interior materials are nice with the exception of a few knobs that don't seem up to caddy standards. (It's a GM product, standards aren't always standards...)
4. Not sure I dig the electronic parking brake. (Embrace technology or die! No wait..Old people like pressing buttons instead of pulling heavy levers.)
5. Factory Brembo pads dust a lot (being fixed next Friday). (Stopping a 4200 pound car makes brake pads cry...)
6. Why the fuck does GM use Bose crap? Even though the system sounds surprisingly good....the proprietary nature of Bose crap makes upgrades a pain in the ass. (No one upgrades their stereo, that's for poor people who drive Hondas...)
7. The engine bay is crappy plastic everywhere. (Cadillac owners don't want to look at an ugly engine, they just need to know where the oil goes...)

No. Poor people that drive hondas are the ones that think Bose sounds good. "no highs, no lows, must be Bose!"

ForcedFedTeg- you tried to neg rep me? LOL, you and Shawn are mad. foam, foam....grrrrrr.

That's a fairly vague generalization. Because someone drives a Honda doesn't mean they are poor. It just means they don't spend their money or spend it on something else other than cars.

Otherwise, Rich. Car looks great. I have never heard of an electronic parking brake (school takes away from car research). It sounds like an interesting concept but what makes it somewhat of a turnoff? I am guessing the tensioning feel drastically different. Ford does the same crap audio-wise with the "Sony" sound system they use if you want to upgrade.

why did you go and edit out your meaningful and honest rant?

E-brake works just like an auto brake, stopping you from rolling backwards on a hill in some modern manuals. A lot of the euro VW's I've been in, it is a standard feature. Haven't been in many cars here besides my own, so I dunno.

Audio

Ill agree bose sounds terrible, car audio wise. I was more than happy to replace it in my s4.

car looks good

Disagree, the kind of low rent people who tune Hondas often live in apartments and work at places like Best Buy
