i personally think the auto fold mirror faster on passenger side is really a big problem.. ive seen other cars with the same problem.. as long as not so much difference.. shud be ok i guess.
Even millions of dollars worth of equipment does not fold-unfold symmetrically. It is not a problem as long as it works.
Something i realised last night while it was raining. Looks like Honda cut cost on building our roof. It felt like i'm being covered above by a thin piece of metal. It is super noisy and it clearly is a result of bad material. All my previous cars doesnt sound so loud under the rain.
I wouldnt trade FC for safety.
You are not trading safety for FC. But you are trading refinement for FC.
The strength of the car is not in its skin, rather in the chassis. Namely the A, B and C pillars. They are the load bearing structures that absorb energy from impacts. The roof is just sheet metal, unable to absorb any significant impact. The roof is bolted on the A, B, C pillars.
Get roof insulation done and you will get better sound proofing.
