Not only can't you see the end of the hood but you can't see the road
near the front of the car. Blame the struts for the relatively high
fenders. See Porsche or Scion xB for examples of alternative body-
design solutions for a strut suspension that achieve better
visibility.

But, yeah, you can get used to it. Just ask anyone driving an SUV.
(OK, that was a cheap shot.)
