RE the hood with gas flap. I guess there are various schools of thought on that....of course it would make it more convenient I am sure, but I do NOT have one and have never wanted one....you can pop the hood very quickly to get to the filler....on the other hand I don't drive my car all that much, like many drive it a LOT and are using that filler a lot....Mine might be once a month or so. I like the smooth uncluttered lines of the D. I DO have the hood lines though, which I like. Just depends on your thinking .
