Of course I ordered my '05 without ever test driving or even sitting in one. So sue me. Wait, sue many of us!

I sat in one today at the New England Auto Show. It was much better than I expected. I thought it would be a bit more comfortable than my '00, but it's much more comfortable. I can stretch my legs out further and still have the wheel in a good position. There is more shoulder room and head room, so it feels overall roomier. The interior quality was just fine.

The crowd was all over that car every time I went back for another sit.

Where is mine?

Great interior. With the leather and IUP it's like a sports-luxury car. I'm 5'5" and normally have a hard time seeing well out of a 2 dr due to the blind spots. Even I feel fully comfortable in this car. Better than an S2000, Miata, 350Z. Love it. Good luck on a speedy delivery!

I sat in the same car at the NE auto show. It looks so much better in person. I love how the hood bulges and the dash is awesome. I won't be getting one for a few years unfortunately till my daughter is older..I think I want a vert though..
