    I would like some feed back on tire presure and many other items for this configuration.
    I went from standard tire pressure to 38PSI and logging 53MPG as of today. I will try 42/40PSI but these low profile, very stiff tires(195/55/16), ride like a buggy at 38PSI. ARGH

    Also has anyone tried the heated rearview mirrors since there is not a specific button just for the mirrors and I do not see any heat strips in the mirrors.

    In addition, do the headlights turn off automatically on this model if you leave the switch on. I do not have auto lights but it seems I remember the lights coming on one morning without me turning them on.

    The heaters in the mirrors come on with the rear window defroster.

    The headlights, if left in the on position, should turn off when you press the power button to turn the car off.

    Curious after reading the thread on the 2010. Does the 2009 have any driving modes like economy etc?
