It's the button next to the gear shifter with the damper icon.



It's a nice feature I would also like to have but I don't want to abandon the heated seats for it...I realy love them.
I've played around with that button before, no visuals pop up on my screen or anythign like it to let me know what setting i'm in

Hmm, on mine it does. It shows the icon light of a shock absorber (like on the switch).

Yes you're true I noticied it today.

What's the difference then what does it do? Just firmer handling?

And it's beautiful..

in love with this car right now, I don't know if they revised the model before bringing it out here to Europe (first models became available for us in April) but i'm having none of the infontainment or rattle issues i've read about here by other users. Handling is a dream, mpg and comfort is great.

This is the toploaded model (excluding Prestige that adds leather seats, but removes dual centre exhaust, side skirts etc)
Biggest gripes so far is that they decided to remove the remote engine start function when bringing it here to Europe
17 inch wheels instead of 18
We get no rear heated seats
No power adjusted seat position


Feels like it's lacking some power (coming from a 350z) but a tune by Vit should fix that in the near future.


People have been really polarized on its looks but I can tell you that here in Europe its considered a gorgeous smash hit.

Does anyone know the factory tint % that comes in the Europe specs rear windows?

It makes the shock absorbers stiffer. You can certainly feel it taking corners.
Not sure of this but I thought it also adjusts the throttle respons and steering. Could be that it's only for the absorbers.

Looks great! Is it manual or CVT? What engine do you have?

Hi. I noticed there is a setting for automatic folding of the side mirrors. Mine does not work. Do yours?
