Another thread for fun…

What feature(s) of your previous car do you miss the most in your 2nd gen NX?

 

missed features:
Manual 6-speed. The Lexus NX 350h would be the most awesome car ever if it had manual shifting
the ability to set a customized set of drive features that do not reset every time to start the car , e.g. set "Sport" mode, stays in "Sport" mode after you stop/start car.
change in shocks and damping ( I guess the F-sport somewhat does this_) comfort, normal , sport, track, custom - all persistent through restarting car
customizable engine/exhaust noise that is persistent through start/stop quiet, normal, loud, track, custom

home screen layout 3 mini screens

YMMV,

more Hp, but I'll give up performance for the better mpg..

 

I had a 2017 Civic Hatch Sport. Two thing i do kinda miss.....Cornering feel and an accurate engine oil life meter that is based on engine RPM and driving habits.

 

I have door ding phobia - I miss the sense of freedom I had with my last car where I wasn’t as nervous about parking it in certain places.

…other than that, I really don’t miss anything about my last car.

 

A real gear shift. Bluetooth that works. Less clutter on the instrument panel and real gauges on the instrument panel.

 

I guess the 416 ponies

 

2019 Lincoln's Nautilus Messaging Seats

 

Miss the cornering fell of my S2000

 

2017 Audi A6 Prestige with the Sports package -- the handling in general, along with the acceleration. I was only getting 24mpg, though, and the cost of regular maintenance was astronomical. I projected the cost for the next 5 years with just normal wear-and-tear maintenance. It was essentially a wash with trading it in for the NX 350h.

 

Without a doubt the door keypad on my Lincoln and F150. That's a brilliant feature and I thought that Ford had that patent locked down tight but then I discovered Nissan has it on some of their vehicles so maybe not. Also miss my massaging seats, passenger seat lumbar, leather dash, various soft touch materials, etc. Ah well, such is the price of progress (and cost cutting).

 

Still got mine!

 

I miss her cooking.

 

Lol, fun thread. When I decide to take a spin in the ol '01 ES300 I'm IMMEDIATELY shocked with how "responsive" direct throttle and steering are. Like, you can feel the road surface! It's pretty shocking, especially considering that the older ES300's are... not exactly known for their um road feel and responsiveness! But yeah, drive-by-wire systems really isolate you from the road for better or worse and until you go back to an "old" car, you don't even realize how much!

Oh, and visibility. Why oh why they gotta make it so hard to see outta the rear I'll never understand... If they'd have just squared off the rear side windows instead of coming to that point... maybe it'd look less "cool" but my god would it be easier to see out of...

 

I think that’s for rollover protection. Have you noticed A pillars getting thicker over the years? Yeah the cage needs thicker bars.

 

Height...is that a feature?
