+1 on most of this minus the clutch issues and wet floorboards! Another thing that annoys me is they could have put one of those in the trunk handles so you can close the trunk w/o putting a big smudge on the trunk/decklid/faux cap; CDC Classic blackout has somewhat fixed that problem for me but a little handle to pull it closed on the inside kinda like the IS250 has wouldn't hurt...

OMG YOU HAVE NO IDEA. if my front seats move even an inch. and i move it back to it's original position or try to, it just squeaks. i absolutely love my gf's a4 cuz of the memory seat and mirror feature. so convenient
back to the op, i think that the most annoying feature about the car is that i don't like that there is that the speedo's default setting when the lights are off have a very nice white, but when you turn the lights on, you can't have the same white light.
oh, the squeaky stock clutch, not the most fun. good thing there's music and engine roar. lol

I'm noticing some more scratches on the plastic interior pieces lately. Its like if you run a finger nail across a flat black painted surface and it leaves a permanent shiny line. The rear window cleaning is bad so mine usually looks fogged when the sun shines through.
I've never had a leak in the interior. I'm happy with the trunk button on the key fob. If it bothers you so much, mount a spare one inside the car.
The only other problem I have is trying not to get stopped for speeding or reckless driving. The Mustang sometimes turns me into a Mr. Hyde when I get behind the wheel.

Cheap interior. I love the car but can't understand why Ford couldn't have spent a little more money on a higher quality (material) interior. That "hard plastic" with no cushion dash, side panels and other interior parts kills me.

I also have to add the deep gauges as a complaint. Actually the mufflers help with weight distribution although I have a lot less weight than stock with my Boomtubes.
