absence of wet napkin disposer makes it next to impossible to enjoy mars bars and PBJ while driving

Default Yeah, there might be a few issues with the car...but chill baby, the S4 is AWESOME even stock!

Every make/model has some snags. No way to avoid it. But overall I think the S4 is solid. The problems that do exist are often over-emphasized here. Maybe I'm in the minority here, but I try to remind myself how lucky I am to be driving such a fine car!
