5) Analog speedo. I know its tradition, but after living with a digital speedo for a decade it's amazing how much more readable the digital style is. (I do realize that the HUD includes a digital speedo but I don't have that package.)
6) The bass response of the standard radio is... "flubby" is the word I use. There's no punch, no impact. Just a whole lot of mid/low-frequency ressonance where there shound instead be kick, and an over-amplification of a narrow range of low frequencies. Great for talk radio and classical music, but sucks for my electronica.

I agree with you on not being able to read the non illuminated parts easily in certain lighting, as well as engine being a bit quiet and the bass.
I've heard that you need to 'break the sound system in' I've had the car for about three weeks, sort of hearing a difference from the first day till now but nothing big yet. When it comes to the sound of the engine, get rid of the resonator and you'll get more grunting from the exhaust. Replace the portion with a straight pipe.
