I use my cruise that's for sure!
I do a fair bit of expressway driving and setting cruise sure makes the drive easier, I never have to look down and be surprised that I'm doing 20+mph over the speed limit. The cruise on this car is also amazing I might ad. I have never had a vehicle that deviated from the set speed by such a small amount. My truck can wander from the set speed by almost 4 to 5 miles, the most I have seen the S wonder is about 1, maybe 2 on a very steep downhill.
What I would like to know is if the electrical connections and mounting holes are the same on the '04 switch as an '02, but I suspect not... The reason is I like the '04 cruise switch better because they have the 3rd middle switch that cancels the set speed. On '00 to '03 you have to push the 2 buttons at the same time to cancel out the set speed.
For myself I did not like the way it felt so I did the Modifry mod.

No cruise available on Euro cars! I haven't found the need for cruise on the Autobahn anyway.

Just put it on the floor and leave it there. Where's the need for a cruise control on the Autobahn?

I refuse to use the AC as well...
I suppose if you don't use these things, it's a waste of money. I look at stuff like cruise, A/C, power windows, power top power mirrors and remote door locks as convenience items that most people find handy (well, at least I do).

No cruise on Aus Ss, so I added it myself
I added it because if I'm going to get a ticket it's not going to be for doing 10K over the speed limit on the freeway. I installed just before driving 1000Km to Indy 300.
