Remembered another one:
The SR's audio unit display / backup camera screen doesn't dim with the dashboard light dimmer. If you ever drive away from the bright lights of the city and want to dim your dash lights in the country, you'll find that screen too bright. I did.

You mean you turn on your cruise control when you try to answer the phone?
Or you make phone calls when you're trying to set your speed?

Funny, but my idea was.
Turn this into the horn but keep the other side of the button as the cruise on/off toggle.
Just an idea.
And although the steering wheel isn't telescopic, did they really have to squish it up against the dash like that?
A little distance in that area in my opinion would be the single biggest improvement they could make, but i'm liking all the ideas showing up on this tread, thanks all!

A 6th speed on the manual version, this car is begging for it! Should improve fuel consumption and lower engine noise at highway speeds.

my three gripes from just over a week and almost a thousand km...
Storage, I came from a '05 Echo and that thing had bins EVERYWHERE!
Trip computer is only 1 line, I like to see more than one line of info at a time. A dedicated odometer would be good.
Hatch seems to take more effort than should be needed to get it to latch. I find myself having to close it more than once.
minor issues: the horn while locking car, range of remote locks seems weak, lack of dedicated vents for side window defrost, electric windows freeze up easily, and there is no cold engine temp light.
OH AND A FREAKIN' 6th GEAR WOULD BE SWEET!!
What I wish that my car had are first a keyless for starting the car. I don't like having to put the key in the ignition in order to start it. I would prefer to just turn the contact, or even better, a push button start like the Micra in Europe.
Second is I would like an outside temperature reading, and last but not least, I would like a darn GPS in the radio system.

AHA! Merci!
I checked in the owner's manual, but that info would have been in the radio manual (which didn't come with the review car I had).
