Devil-God is in the details

Famous quotations dictate 'The devil is in the detail', and 'God is in the details', and of course they are both right. Heres my list of top ten little details that delight, and minor annoyances on my 9-5, I ignore the obvious major plus things like power, styling, handling etc that get you to actually buy the car, instead its the unexpected and minor.
Divine:
1. Puddle lights and footwell lights
2. Best normal headlights Ive seen
3. Seats are so comfortable
4. Vent direction controls
5. Turning lights come on in reverse - ideal for backing out of garage
6. Narrow sills once door is opened
7. The lovely dark wood dash (2001 aero)
8. Proper security system on a US spec car
9. Rear fog lights on a us spec car
10. That little ticket holder on the A pillar by the windscreen
Devilish
1. No synchro on reverse
2. Memory seat button has to be held down all through time it takes to adjust, doesnt work off remote.
3. Lack of lateral support to seats
4. Gas door should lock/unlock with drivers door.
5. Spindly light plastic indicator stalks with unpleasant action
6. Headlight stalk dip to full brights control is pull back for on, pull back for off, not a separate position for brights and dip - plus the pull back is too long a distance.
7. No full size spare
8. Can passenger door mirror drop automatically on selecting reverse gear
9. Vanity mirror lights are too dim
10. Floor mats come free from locators too easily
What are yours.
