Search prior posts on this topic, but my two cents is that I would rather have a manual mirror. My 06 9-5 sedan is my first experience with autodimming, and I find it does not dim enough for my taste. This is my fourth SAAB since 1995 and I never recall being annoyed by lights behind me at night as in this car. I spend a lot of time being distracted while checking to see if it is still on the dim setting, or moving the mirror to avoid glare
Perhaps because all my prior cars were hatchbacks and this is a sedan, or now every other car now has high output lights, but the auto dim feature is the only thing I don't like about this car.
