I race a Fiat 850 spider (sometimes in Enduros) and so get plenty of
experience using my mirrors - My car and several others I have driven have
"WINK" mirrors - the multi-segment wide-angle type. For production cars I
think they give a real improvement in situational awareness at a cheap
price.
Have Fun,
