glass sunroofs with sunshade

This feature REALLY ticks me off. If the sunroof is closed, I want the sunshade closed as well. I miss my old 900 GLE with manual sunroof, grab the handle and pull back to open, grab again and pull forwards to close. Simple and effective. New Saab has an electric sunroof, and the controll is stupidly on the roof, not the console. Opening is easy, but to close you need to hold the darn button until its closed all the way, then pull the stupid sunshade closed.

Other than that, thick A pillars, especially ones that slope way forward, are terrible. In the 9-3 I have a huge blindspot on both sides caused by that pillar. Mostly a problem at intersections.

And buttons. I really prefer to grab a knob and spin than repeatedly punch a button.
