I thought it seemed small at first too. Now I don't even notice. Only thing I still have minor issues with is the gargantuan blind spot of the C-pillar depending on what angle I have to see.

The only problem I see is when you are under a street light and you can't look up to see it.. That is tough to do in this car... For example you are in the middle of the intersection when the light is green waiting for it to turn red...I've had it happen to me twice now where it turns red and I'm blocking traffic as I couldn't tell it changed.. Now I sit back and don't pull out like I used to anymore..

Come to think of it, the 4th gen has the largest piece of front glass on any car I have ever seen!

I like the 5th gen's visibility over the 4th gens simply because you can see the hood.. However the 4th gens did allow you to look up at street lights much easier as it was larger..
