The only complaint I have is how much I hate anyone in front of me in the mountains on a good twisty road.

The car is offered in both transmissions, so get the one you like. There's no reason to hate because there are two offerings, unless you're just being a manual transmission snob.

It's not too bad, way better than the polite little "meeeeep" that was in my 2007 Civic Si Coupe. People were retrofitting the horn from the Fit as I recall...

Forget the memory foam. Go to the foot care aisle and look for shoe inserts. The foam is much denser and more durable. You might be able to find something in black and cut it to fit.

Found them, $45 might wait and see how much the ones with stitching are from the 86, if they become available.

Might try this out, but would rather wait and see about the stitched ones. Seen some pictures of them look nice. Now just to find if someone has them and how much. Might even just check out a local interior shop and see how much some could be made for.
