The G locks sound bit manufactured.
  • I hate the key. Slippery and buttons hard to press.
  • The rear plate design is horrid.
  • Drives me nuts that the parking button does not auto bring up the camera views +1
  • Lack of storage under the seats and generally a lack of compartments to store things.
  • Rear trunk space
  • Plastic rain gutters make it hard to access the roof. Used to be able to grab the gutter to pull yourself up on the side rail, or step on top of tire. Now there is nothing to grab on to. Also, they look/feel cheap.
  • The panel under the center console feels hollow when you tap it. +1 but the full leather package should remedy that.
  • Still haven't found a good mount solution for the iphone. FOUND PERFECT SOLUTION BY BUYING MAGNET STRIPS ON AMAZON.
  • No USB in the cup holder are (but thank goodness for the cupholder compartment.) I USE CARPLAY2AIR. NO NEED FOR USB, JUST CAR CHARGER
  • Infotainment system basically a step behind. Lack of mbux will drive me crazy when its finally introduced. +1
  • Remote start kills engine when you unlock the car +1

In short this car is a feat of engineering and is amazing on every level. So these nits are really just nits and not at all major detractions.

Hmmm... it does for me. Additionally, the 360 Camera comes up automatically when you are going slow enough and are close to an object. Perhaps there's a setting to disable this, and yours is off?

pressing the parking button brings up the parking search feature. You then need to go down to see get to the camera. So it’s at least 2 steps instead of 1

It’s actually 0 steps - just drive up (fwd or backward), and when you get close to something, the cameras will display automatically.

yeah they changed internal frame of the mirror but it still vibrates, although a bit less. Am not sure why it’s on the left hand side drive side mirror and right one is okay.

Mine too - just the left mirror (driver's side), only the glass vibrates, and to be clear it's very minor. I would not say it bothers me, and I'm quite ****. I will get it looked at before the warranty ends. Odd that it's just the left mirror, as they should be identical.

I don't have any wind noise complaints. I find it quite reasonable actually, even at 80 mph. Probably the G63 has more highway noise due to the tires and wider fender.

Not 100% related, but my 2020 E63s driver side mirror also vibrates at higher speeds 75+. The passenger side is ok.

Quirk: The rear deck cover does not fit very well in the rear passenger seat/foot well area so if you are trying to remove, and store it in the back seat, it doesn't really fit with out angling it a little bit. Silly complaint but has caused an issue for me when hauling some stone in the rear area with the seats folded down and trying to store the deck cover in the foot well of the rear seat area.

I occasionally get a false audible and picture alert that my hood is ajar.
