What 'extra feature' do you appreciate the most in your car?

[FrustratedUser]

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.

Don't work when trucks aren't directly behind you and lights and shine into your side-view.

Best extra feature my car seems to have is to be blind to cops.

I've been in situations where I'll be following friends at the same speeds and everything, and the cops will drive around me, and cut me off to pull over whoever I was following.

Maybe its the whole mid-90's camry thingy.

The bike rack on it.

 

[GTaudiophile]

The fact that it can pull 0.91g on the skidpad and gets 30mpg!

[spunkz]

one-click-window-roll-down. just need the same for putting it back up

My GPS system. I love it. I don't even NEED it 80% of the time, but it's such a cool geek factor!

It actually works surprisingly well.

Audio controls built-in on the steering wheel. I hate reaching for the knobs/buttons on the center console.

my first car (1987 Bonneville) had that. I loved that feature. In fact, I loved everything about that car. God I miss her

Best: Air Conditioning
Worse: Automatic Headlights without override to turn them off

 

[trmiv]

Audio controls on the steering wheel.

And auto headlights. I can turn them off though.

 

When I press the unlock button on my remote twice and hold it down, the windows all lower. It's great on those hot summer days.

Also, I LOVE having the remote built into the ignition key.

 

[CrackRabbit]

The fact that it still runs after 18 years.

Is that why your hands smelled like armor all? Dude, love your car but don't LOVE your car..

Pen holder in the center console.

Low end torque

 

[erikistired]

4wd so i can get around idiots who won't take left turns when there is plenty of time and would rather hold up everyone else waiting behind them.

Apparently some people don't understand the words "extra feature"

Yeah, the thread is going Off-Topic.

I meant the little small things not usually found.
