No problems with the center console lid...the glove box however is flimsy, but really...how often do you have to go in there?
yes...they are hard to turn, but once again don't you set it and forget it?
It is a bit brighter than it probably needs to be, but I don't notice it.
One of the few things I don't like about this car.
Huh? Not at all.
Show me one car under $30k that DOESN'T come with a bit. Clay is your friend.
I had this issue earlier on, but now as the car is broken in it has gone away.
I've never had a single brake squeak.
Never had this problem.
Never had this problem.
True, but apparently this is nothing new to some models of cars.
Not in mine.
They are all SO minor that you do indeed not remember them when you're crushing a Mustang GT in a 4 door sedan. This car is the ultimate sleeper and is an amazing car, ESPECIALLY for the price. Compare it to a 5 series BMW for half the cost and it will measure up in almost everything.

Thanks for confirming most of the problems!
Your console lid must be better than the others
Seat adjusters - What if more than one size person drives the car? It must be adjusted everytime a new driver gets in.
AirBag light all the time
Turn signal level - personal preference
Piston slap
Just Google this stuff! It's all there. (Piston slap at cold start-up is not harmful, just irratating)
I'll show you a a sh** load of cars with no orange peel for under $20,000 and good luck with that clay on a clear-coat finish
Remember - if it's not happening to you, that does not mean it does not exist.
To reiterate, I would already own a G8 GT if the Camaro wasn't coming.
I understand you wanting to defend your recent purchase. I want all these vehicles to be the best they can be and honest feedback will help with future improvements.
