I don't know who is doing your maintenance, but you are getting absolutely flogged on pricing, dude. Buy your own parts and have someone do the labor. Most of the things you referenced pricing on was at least 40% too high. Otherwise, I think you may have purchased the wrong vehicle.
I'm going to say my least favorite feature is a non-existant one; line in for an MP3 player. I'm using a DLO TransPod FM transmitter for the time being, which works very well. But sooner or later I'm getting a JVC KDNX5000 w/ iPod adapter.
I'm surprised so many people have referenced the audio system in a negative light. After making a few basic treble and bass adjustments, the system acquits itself quite well. Even the GPS system, sans color screen, is so simple to use; fast route calculations, easy to enter addresses, clear voice directions, I didn't expect tha aspect of this car to work as well as it does.
