The keypad to unlock the doors/pop the trunk. No, I don't mean the remote entry thing. Car has a little numeric pad on the driver's door that will unlock/lock the doors or pop the truck with a given key sequence. It sounds stupid, but it's so nice not to have to fish in my pocket for my keys when I just want to grab a pen from my car, or to be able to leave the car running to warm up on a cold morning and still have it locked. Plus, I can never lock my keys in my car because of this.

Ooh, forgot about that. I've got three of our cars programmed with the same entry code. My son's know it, and can get into the locked car, or pop the trunk without the keys. I'd have never purchased that option, I'd certainly miss it if it were gone.

I got a self dimming center rear view mirror with built in compass.
Great when some A-holes have the high beam on behind me.

I have this also!

and I love the bright xenons, the steptronic (the sport mode)!

it just rained here, and I love the automatic wiper as well 😀😀

 
I like the automatic climate control, and heated mirrors, makes it really nice in the winter. Just set the temperature you want and it automatically turns on the rear window defroster and all the other stuff depending on the temp and the amt of sunlight...
 
"hose out" interior. Great for shoving my mountiain bike in the back (with all wheels still attached) after a muddy trail ride.

i love my sunroof :-D

My oneclick roll down window for the drivers side is nice, press the window button down all the way, it clicks (not into place, just kind of a noise) and it goes all the way down. I live in newport beach, no need for air conditioning in my car:-D

I know. I never had keyless entry until this car either and I never thought twice about it. Would have never paid for anything like that before I had it, but now that I do have it, it's just so bloody convenient. One of those, "huh, never thought it would be that convenient" kinds of things.
