    This.

    I was able to get my mirrors adjusted far enough away from the body to see most things. Except cars that come roaring up when you're not watching and want to either take a picture or race. Uh, no 370Z.

On the right side, it is adjusted so that i can see the car in the mirror and as it goes by me, say in heavy traffic and as it disappears from the mirror, the nose of the car is now visible through the passenger side of the window. I can't adjust the mirror on the drivers side to duplicate this effect. So as the car appears in the mirror and disappears as it goes by, there is a considerable distance until it appears in my peripheral vision as i glance left. Probably has to do with the convexity of the passenger mirror as opposed to the driver's side.

    Car is the perfect candidate for lane change assist, far more useful over cruise control

    A few of these did the job for me:
    Amazon.com: Custom Accessories 71173 Chrome 2" Round Adjustable Blind Spot, (Pack of 2): Automotive

    Looks better with the Lambo design than the circular ones, and the quality is amazing. Blind spot totally eliminated. I also tinted my main mirrors due to the huge amounts of glare driving at night, so basically I only end up using these little panoramic ones. Works great.

    Before this I hated driving the car in traffic in LA. You get very little time to change lanes here and with the massive blind spots I kept bottling out of lane changes. Not any more

    Electrochromic mirrors with the convex edge (hi Ferrari) would have fixed both of these problems, but the fix was easy enough.

    I'm seriously considering an aftermarket blind spot detection system. The #1 think I don't like about this car is the passenger side blind spot, hands down. Super insecure about it, but so far I have my mirror pretty much turned out all the way to see the blind spot which sucks because you cant see fast approaching cars with side mirror, you have to look in the rear view mirror but of course I dont have the optional glass engine cover so rear visibility is suspect as well.

    Not sure if this works on the Coupe, but on the Spyder, rear view mirror. I adjust it so while looking up into the mirror only the upper half of the mirror sees oncoming traffic, the bottom half of the mirror sees the inside back panel of the car. This allows a straight shot of the rear view with the mirror, otherwise it seems the shot I get is pointed too high and I cannot see cars as they approach. Sure hope all this makes sense.

    Can you post a picture of your mirrors. Curious how it looks.
