3) Lack of auto dimming mirrors, at least the rear view mirror. Cars at a much cheaper price point are equipped.
4) Homelink! Hate having to dig my remote out of the console to get into my gate and then my garage.
5) Wish the grill had a flowtie or no tie. Personal preference, I like the cleaner look.
6)Skip shift, what a piece of shit. Cant wait to get it turned off, having to subconsciously drive around it sucks, especially in a stop light to stop light situation.
7) Shifter is a little to notchy, its starting to loosen up though.

Most of which can be fixed except for 3 and 4. The rest can be addressed with A) more money B) Tune.

Overall I love the cockpit type feeling, the seats are frankly AMAZING, the audio is fine for the average joe and the power is awesome (needs more though)
This is pretty much my list as well, I would add..
1) already on order, these sticky, wide tires throw up a lot of dirt and rocks
2) audio is really tinny, but as someone mentioned, a directly connected phone makes things better; since i just got it, i spend more time listening to the V8 anyway
3) the odd thing is I looked for the GM autodimming mirror part number, and apparently it has been discontinued (http://www.gmpartsdirect.com/chevrol...=mirror-inside)
4) no homelink is annoying, but there is a GM replacement to get garage door opener without a sunroof. (http://www.gmpartsdirect.com/chevrol...erhead-console)
but in order to isntall it you need a new wiring harness (http://www.gmpartsdirect.com/chevrol...e=wire-harness)
5) yes, flowtie please
6) yes, skip shift sucks, but not sure if installing the defeater will introduce an issue somewhere else.
7) not really an issue for me
8) no blind spot monitoring - i've adjusted my mirrors to eliminate blind spots, but I still would like the peace of mind that blind spot monitoring provides.
9) it would have been nice if there was an option to come with high performance all seasons. those of us in non-southern states had to add a wheelset to the purchase price.
