Yeah, the climate control leaves a lot to be desired (coming from an ex-Acura owner).

My ES set to auto was great! The GS seems to be a little weird to me. I'm convinced you could get it perfect if they let you tweak the fan and auto seat heater/cooler a little from default like they do with the auto lights.

Roll down all the windows when you first enter the car will help all the plastic/material things and mild/mold from the A/C condenser release inside the cabin white your car sitting under the sun. Those things know to cause the cancer or harmful to your health.

Since this topic has come up again, I noticed my A/C never switches automatically from Recirculate to Fresh. That causes it to blow really cold to get up to speed. I usually turn it to Fresh a couple of minutes after I get in the car. Then, it's perfect.
