Mine hands down, is the air-conditioned seats. I don't know why people go bonkers over it..but I always get a "holy ******" or a "you cant be serious" reaction...

 

People LOVE the "nut coolers." Yes, my friends and I call them nut coolers. What wows people the most is the speed of the car - people dont realize how fast this car really is.

 

This is a hard one cause there are so many things in the car that people go WOW over

 

The seats aren't air conditioned, just ventilated. And mine are extremely weak, even on "3" I can't feel a thing, at least while wearing long pants.

 

Yea....no AC in the seats....just blows ambient air. But in shorts it is noticable. And, the heated settings get your *** pretty toasty.

 

I can almost swear that i feel the compressor kicking in when i turn it on cool.

 

i dont kno why i said ac but i meant air

 

i love the back up camera feature. dont look at it too much.. but it's fun to show off.

 

DVD player is great. That is definately worth the ML upgrade!

 

My favorite is still the bluetooth integration with my cellphone, but people get most excited about the back up camera

 

definately the back-up camera...too bad it cant stay on with a push of a button.

 

I would've said "backup camera" but sometimes I don't backup. They get in and say - damn you got NAV, you're a baller...something to that effect. I would put the car in reverse just to wow them some more, but that would be over the top.

Other times when people are first getting into my car they comment on the NAV (of course) then when they see the backup camera on-screen it goees a little something like this "damn you got a backup camera, you're a baller"...something to that effect.

But ya, after today, when my wheels are on - that'll probably be the initial wower....then the NAV, and then probably the camera, but only if they get lucky enought for me to be forced to back up - or if they get lucky enough for me to want to say "you wanna see something even cooler than my wheels and my NAV?"

Then again - it IS my wifes car. now, my Van, I guess the wow factor is "damn.. your wife drives the Sportscar and you drive this??" Yes, I know... I'm even sometimes wowed by that.

 

I get by far the most comments about my GFM paint...

Definitely the back-up camera. I have been very surprised at how often first-time passengers literally say "wow" when I shift into reverse and the screen flashes to the rear view and how much repeat passengers like to point that feature out to new passengers in the car.

I guess the wow factor for that feature is somewhat understandable given that it is a visually dynamic gadget and more unexpected than the Nav system itself.

Voice recognition (along with the car talking) is another "wow" feature. But when showing it off I confine myself to commands I know will work--especially, "I'm hungry"--since I find that many commands simply get lost in translation.

 

I don't really have anyone complementing on my car's features but rather the car's appearance..
