How tall are you? Because the car has been made to support tall people with helmets, so I don't get how it needs that little bit more headroom. Unless you're sitting in the back?

6'2" and I have to slouch pretty good with a helmet on, if there were only an inch or so more room, I would be fine...

I've got friends who are 6' 4" they can bump their heads on the headliner, zero room for a legitimate helmet. They could, own the car for daily driving but long stretches of driving and track duty may be out of the question. At least in stock form. Ripping out the headliner and buckets may make it possible but not easy to pass track inspection.

I hate that people can actually HATE something about this car?. Did I say that before? If so, I hate that, too.

Nobody said it is, but to have a car like this and sit and think of things you HATE about it is lead-paint retarded. I can't even come up with something I dislike, an annoyance or even something moderately irritating about this car.

Good post :happy0180:. I'm pretty much in the same boat. I'm stoked on the car. I was just talking to my wife about it. I've had the car for 6 months already and I still feel excited about it like I just bought it. Love it. Great little car for the money.

i dont change lanes by my side view mirror. I only do it with shoulder checks. Also change in the cup holder is just tacky imo.
