Sardines have it made
Hi all...
It's been a while since I posted last...Still don't own one...But have test driven one. (Black, Auto)
Here are my impressions:
Handling in all aspects; Superb!
Acceleration; Superb!
Interior Quietness; Superb!
Sound system; magnificent!
Quality of materials and craftsmanship, inside and out; Superb!
Engine sound at idle and throttled up; Awesome!
Styling and gadgetry: Excellent!
Driver's comfort and roominess; The absolute worst vehicle I've ever been crammed into!!!!...Headroom sucked!!! I could not sit up straight without hitting the headliner...Leg room so cramped, my kness rubbed on the steering wheel. I rubbed shoulders with the sales woman, literally.
The Seats and steering wheel were set to their full out extremes!
I'm 6'3''/200lbs...IMO, this interior was meant for a 5'5" tall petite person only!!!...Anyone larger or taller, will be familiar with what a sardine must feel like. This car is going to appeal to a very narrow margin of buyers I'm afraid...And they are already begining to discount them here in Oklahoma for the lack of sales. 2 on the road so far here, 15 on the lot with the one of dealers I visited...Sticker Priced at $35,000 as fully loaded.
I really liked the car overall, but the lack of room is going to deter me from buying I'm afraid. :cry:
