We all have good and bad parts to the car (there are threads on our HCH-II page for "Best HCH features" and "Most-lacking HCH feature"). I like how other cars have Nav that let you modify as you drive while the HCH doesn't allow you that luxury and you have to cancel the current route to do a look-up and add-to-the-list-of-routes move. Do they think that no car ever has a passenger in the car who does not have to drive the car and is capable of running the Nav screen? The HCH-II does have "Jeezus" handles in all positions *including* the driver's seat (a feature I have missed since an '85 Audi I had). It also has lots of map pockets (one in each door) and other good perks but it is hard to see the hood when parking or the trunk when backing so none of our cars are perfect yet.
