The durability of the paint. I can understand the orange peal at it's price point. But it seams to chip very easily.

No power reclining seat backs. I am sure the later models have them but come on..... our 1958 Olds Super 88 had them but they could not put them in my 2015?
I thought that was necessitated by the fact that there are no back doors so rear occupants need to be able to push the seat back forward to allow emergency exit.

I hate the way I worry about leaving it in the parking lot where anybody might ding my doors or fenders.

Also, it gets wet when it rains. :crazy:

Dash rattles. Way too much plastic on plastic action.
This! I have had my new EB only 2 days and have noticed a few lol. But, in my past Mustangs I had the same issues other than that... Nothing really

I've only had the car 3 days. First I don't see a trunk open button inside the car but maybe I haven't found it yet? It would be nice to have/find. Second the size of the key fob. I look like a retired porn star with this thing bulging in my pocket LOL. 3rd- Tooling around feel. The car feels slow on regular acceleration compared to my lowly 2013 Camaro SS. I know its a way faster car but it doesn't feel like it. I'm hoping getting better 94 octane gas in there and the dealer gas out improves that. The Camaro felt faster doing nothing this car seems it will feel faster when really doing something. Its okay but its definitely different.

Last too much window glass. In the Camaro I never feared a sniper's bullet because no one could see me through the gun slit windows. Now I feel so vulnerable to attack. Ok I'm kidding I love the outward view its perfect!
Look next to the sunglasses holder. Left side of the steering wheel under the light switch.

Trunk button is below your light switch is a small square, closed to the wheel. ;)

On my '18, the A10 is still kind of harsh and unpredictable in Sport+ and Track modes. I don't mind it shifting hard if I'm giving it a lot of throttle, but it often shifts hard even at light throttle, and holds low gears too long (at light throttle). IMHO, "Sport" mode should be more of an intermediate mode between Normal and Track, something a bit more city-driving-friendly.

2nd worst thing would be the 9-speaker audio system; weak bass and poor stereo imaging.

I can think of 10 things, all nitpicky of course in under 10 seconds. But my biggest beef with Ford is the ultra modern prop rod that is such a superior item that it simply hasn't changed much since 1965!
'65 had struts. At least mine does and I am pretty sure they're original.

The easily scratched and impossible to keep clean decklid panel.

The lack of hood struts

No power reclining seats

Not that there is an easier solution to this one but I hate the cup holders being where they are. My arm always hits whatever I’ve got in there or I’ve got to maneuver over it to shift.

All nit picky minor things for sure.

Okay so I've looked all over the dashboard and I cannot for the life of me find a yellow circle anywhere! Thx man! I thought for sure it had to have one. My GF said to read the manual to which I replied chick's read manuals but guys post on forums because we are too stubborn to read & its another excuse to talk about our cars :)
