Yeah, I imagine it is only a sedan thing. The belts are actually flat against the seat, but with the rear windows all the way down at speed the air gets between the belt and the seat and causes it to flap/vibrate. I haven't been able to devise a way to quiet it down aside from raising the rear windows partially.

^LOL, the 10 songs took 35 minutes to play, but the importing/recording went a lot faster. All I know is that I hit the "record" button, drove around for a while and within 5-6 minutes a message on the screen said "recording complete". But the music continued playing without a skip.
I admit I was under the assumption that the recording was done simultaneously with the playing, but thank goodness it does not.

I tried another CD with 17 songs in it. Like you said, it took less than 10 minutes to record the entire CD, and I could listen to different tracks while it is recording. Nice!
Somehow the first CD I tried is a single 40+ minute track and the Music Box could not handle it well. I have to let the car run non-stop for 40+ minutes to record it. I guess I'll try to record it next time I'm on a longer trip.

2 days in with G ownership, I've noticed a couple minor annoyances:
-it rained today. After it finished raining, I went out to the car to get something I'd left in the trunk. Pop the trunk, fling it open.......and all this water starts dripping/rushing in. Geez.....my '02 Civic coupe's trunk stayed nearly bone-dry when I'd open it after a rain.
-I have a hard time getting out of this car. And I'm not even a fatty, either! The door ledge seems to be unnaturally high, and I find myself constantly kicking it as I try to get out - which obviously, I don't want to do because I don't want shoe scuffs and other marks! I've taken to getting out of it very carefully...it's almost like the drivers seat is a little further away from the door than I'm used to, as well. It's awkward....it's not a car I can just jump out of. If it's this difficult for me to get out of, I can't imagine how it'd be for a bigger/overweight person. Come to think of it, I can't seem to ever recall seeing any "big" guys or girls driving Gs. Hell, even with the seat lowered all the way, I still find the headroom a little tight, and I'm only 5'11".

Two very minor annoyances here with the Bose stereo in my '10 sedan. First, my '05 G sedan's Bose system would "fade in" the music when I turned it on. It would also volume up or down automatically based on my acceleration. My '10 Bose system does not have these features. Like I said, very minor annoyance, but they were nice to have on my '05.
