My Spitfire has the standard issue flat mirrors on each side, and my 
GT6 has a bullet on each side.  The passenger side mirror on both 
cars is actually useful but not for seeing what is behind me.  They 
give me another view of the lane over my passenger side shoulder and 
about a car length or so back.  That's the scary place you need to 
see when you are changing lanes.  The thing is, they take getting 
used to, require careful aim, etc.  A convex or bubble mirror would 
probably be better but they are useful.
