And with the 11 Firebirds and 2 Camaro's I've owned, I couldn't see the nose, but I learned to adjust.

I don't think anyone can see the nose on those

I had a 97 Camaro so I know what you mean.

Also, with the short windshield it is hard to see the traffic signals overhead if you pull too far up at the intersections.

Best & easiest things to do to see traffic lights-many of us have & I swear by it, best $17.50 I ever spent!

Talk about blindspots. After driving my motorhome, the HHR is like a panorama. And that picture window on the side does nothing for you from the driver's seat. It's all mirrors and you simply need to know how to use them.
Funny how people never take responsibility for their own actions.

hmm, thanks for the tip. Are you a spokesperson for this product? Still doesn't address the sunvisor issues though....

The A-pillar is a know blind-spot. We go to the "dragon" pretty regular, and I have to hang out the window to get a good view on left-hand turns, but I like it for some reason, adds to the cars enthuesit appeal.
