My biggest issues with the car, may be different than someone else's, but here they are:

No heated seats
Needs MORE storage
Needs integrated or easier to use boot
Auto up/down for both windows (only has driver auto down)
Better speakers + sub
6th gear needs to be a little taller
Needs auto-off headlights


Those are the things I dislike. Otherwise, it is an awesome car.

I hope there are not too many flames forthcoming. I love the car, BTW!

Thanks for your honest comments, while some of them are concerns for some, storage, heated seats and auto off head lamps don't bother me in the least. My TSX doesn't even had auto off head lamps, I have no intention of driving the S2k in cold weather and I'd rather take the TSX on a long trip then a cramped S2k. The TSX is the same way with only auto up on the drivers side window- so I am used to that.

I was actually planning on upgrading the stereo, there is no way an OE system can battle the noise created from a roadster at this price point- so its almost to be expected. I've heard about 6th gear being pretty low, and you are running like 4-4.5k RPM's at highway speed's, but its a honda so I guess its ok?? I don't think you damage any thing or even get poor fuel economy because of it, its just the way the F22c is designed.

I am a little confused about what you mean with better integration or easier to use the boot. What is the problem with it?

You have found the infamous "secret compartment" right? no problems refueling? Sorry for so many questions, I have been looking at these cars for a while and am a couple of weeks at the most away from finally pulling the trigger!

As for the heated seats, I also only drive the car in optimal weather, but would like to drive it on days in the low 50's and would need them on that day.

The boot is just a PITA. It is hard to connect the middle snaps and the positioning is even worse. Just a big pain.

I remember a thread a long time ago about the secret compartment, but could not find the thread. Help!

The car has two small map pockets, a cargo net on the passenger's side and a two-chamber console. Also a trunk and two cupholders.

Where is the secret compartment?!?!?!?

Open up the compartment between the seats. At the top of it you will see the latch for the "secret compartment" But when you say two-chamber console...I think you already found it.

As for the boot...I have never used it. I think it's too much of a pain in the ass. Heated seats aren't very useful in Florida The auto shutoff would be nice for the lights. I actually love the listening to the engine at high speeds...But that's just me. I replaced the stock system. It sucks.

Bummer, guess I already located the secret storage.

I never thought I'd use the boot, but after 150 miles, I felt like I had dirt marks on the ceiling.

Memphis does not really require heated seats, but it is a nice to have.

I would be happy with the OEM stereo if it had a sub.

Thanks for the response.
