Whats the coolest feature you didn't know your car had?

I just found out my Mustang had a speedometer when I passed by a cop in the median (no I didn't get pulled over)

Found out today that the drop down compartment in the glovebox is perfect size for a compact handgun. Giggity. Also love the little sun glasses compartment in the dash. Stupid, I know lol.

I like that the satellite radio can be set up to alert me when my favorite bands/songs are playing.

Whoa! How do I make this happen?

Lots of features that are in the 2015 Mustang were standard 15 years ago on my 2001 BMW.

I love this car, it is very Euro in its execution mixed with a great American V8.

Honestly, the first thing that caught me by surprise were the Pony puddle lights, completely wasn't expecting that the first time I saw them in my garage.

Second thing that got me was the first time I filled up and there wasn't a gas cap... it did squirt a little gas back out when it closed.

I keep the lights on Auto, the key fob in my pocket and just drive. The door handle touch to lock and unlock the car is great.

Sure, there are a ton of places to hide a gun in the car, but you should have your gun on your person or easily accessible. You don't want to have to ask your attacker to hold on while you open your Glove box, then open the box inside your glove box to grab your pistol.

I've owned mine for almost a year now and I just found out about this "hidden" trunk button. Awesome neat feature.

Yeah seriously how do you set this up?

While a song you like is playing, there is an alert button you touch. It's been so long since I used the crappy sounding satellite radio, I forgot the exacts. I use Pandora now and the sound quality blows satellite out.

<------- Pony figure light projection from the door rear view mirrors on the GT Premium.

Yep, that was a SURPRISE on the Eco Premy as well ! :clap2:

Also, Did not know my car had Automatic Unlocking & locking doors.. REALLY LIKE not having to dig keys out to get in !

The GIANT backup camera was a pleasant & USEFUL surprise.. I did not know how it was going to come up on the Touch Screen... Great Feature !

This was new to me; while stuck on a conference call recently, with the engine idling for a long time, I got this....

Since few people listen to CDs anymore, I doubt anyone has seen this one. The other night I got this message when I accidentally hit the eject button; surprised me because the car/screen wasn't even on....

When you lock the doors the center console will lock . I guess know one could lean in with the window down and grab something .

Also, the sunglass holder is really cool

check the rear reflector right above your exhaust. see if it melted like some others have reported. i wanna see if it's linked to excessive idling or not.

Wait, there is a CD player in the car?

Read most of the owners manual last night. There were only two things I learned that wasn't already covered, unless I missed it. The first was that you can program a total of 4 keys/transmitters to the car. I am paranoid about losing on or both transmitters and having to pay the dealer a fortune. I had like 6 keys for my 2011. lmao

The second thing I learned was that not only did the car have a tilt steering wheel, but it also has a telescopic column! I went right out to the garage and re adjusted the column and the seat. I have a more comfortable driving position now.

Just saw the slit next to the foglight that leads towards the wheel well.... mindblown!
