There are many, many features of my S550 GT that I'm very impressed with: The design, it's road presence, the power, the aural symphony you play using your right foot together with that beautiful 6spd gerabox, to name a few. However there is one thing that doesn't impress me at all, the S550's woefully inadequate high beam headlights.
I live in a regional area so nearly all of my kilometres are done on 'country' roads (100-110km/h), sometimes at night, and sometimes in the rain. I find the increased concentration level needed in these conditions (Roos) hour after hour, much above 80km/h can be exhausting. I often find myself glancing at the dash to see if that tell-tale blue light is on, it is and I give a little sigh. The number of times I've forgotten to 'dip' my lights for an on coming car occurs frequently because the vast majority don't 'flash' me as a reminder assuming I'm already using my low beam. Proof on how poor they are. The best I can do at this point is to 'photoshop' on some additional lighting.
So what (if anything) are yoy least impressed with on your S550?
