Default Top 11+1 Improvements for 2005 Crossfire Limited

Ok only having my 2005 limited for two weeks I can say that I really love my crossfire. I fully admit that my "suggestions" below are mostly minor annoyances (for me), mostly "love to have".

1. Rear view visibility.
Whoever designed the rear window/pillars should be taken to the woodshed and beaten then shot. You DO have bigger blind spots (although the side mirrors can be adjusted so that you can see cars one lane around you). Diagonally two or more lanes behind you on either side and cars behind you on inclines. Cops are going to love sneaking up on crossfires.

2. Two Driver Seat Position Memory.

3. Radio and Cruise-Control on the steering wheel.

4. Adjustable steering wheel!
I know it telescopes but that just is NOT enough!

5. Driver Side Leg Room
Was that extra piece of lower dashboard on the driver side really needed? It eats up inches of legroom!

6. Smaller cargo area "firewall".
I think this could have been designed better so that the seats could recline/move back a bit more.

7. DOORS
For a sports coupe these are among the worst doors to open and close if you have cars parked on either side of you. They are long (typical for the class) but too far "behind" you it makes getting out without hitting that car alongside of you more difficult then it should be.

8. FULL dual climate controls.
Passenger should be able to adjust own fan control.

9. Cargo/Storage Space Dividers.
Anything so that whenever you put an item inside these different areas you don't have them sliding around all the time.

10. Sunroof/DVD Nav!
Yeah I combined these two hear since for some weird reason some manf. often require a certain bundle just to get DVD Navy.

11. REAL Cup Holders!
For crying out loud. We can put a man on the moon but we can't design two functional/ergonomic cup holders? The solo pop up cup holder is OK but its too far back and that makes it awkward to use.

12. Same sized tires with REAL spare!
