Just slide the passenger seat all the way back! Should be plenty of room

The problem with that is that then the passenger seat doesnt go all the way down... so person in passenger seat is almost upright...

there are ways to make this work though

Other than that, I'm satisfied with my car.
Someplace in here there is a really good DIY on how to fix those rattles. It isn't tough just a bracket adjustment.

One of the things my '96 4Runner was much better at than the FR-S. The trunk area alone was roomy enough for a couple of pent up college students to get the job done

The only thing I don't like about my car is how bigger vehicles feel the need to cut me off constantly. Pretty much it.

Coming from an ex-WSU fratboy turned actual good human being (left Pullman, got into & graduated from UW, and couldn't be happier)... I don't see the point in trying to shag in cars anymore

1. The sound of the horn -- it sounds like a Volkswagen bug.

2. The problem with the air conditioning smelling like old socks.

Otherwise, it's a great car!

If I had to change only one thing about this car, I wouldn't change the engine or the fuel pump, I would change the damn horn. Is there some rule that little cars need to have lame-sounding horns?

wish the trim and the buttons surrounding the clock could be a bit higher quality. just a bit nicer.

If there was an OEM replacement for that space invader BS in the brz I would replace them in a heartbeat. Something sporty but not reflective. Perhaps a graphite type of trim instead.
