Yes I will own an Exige S at some point.

I'm used to getting and out of the BRZ without looking dumb. I don't know if there is really a good way to get in and out of the Exige while maintaining some class, you pretty much have to dump yourself out of it.

Funny, and true. I have an Exige Sport 260 and have owned a couple Elises before it. Definitely toys, and great ones at that! The BRZ makes for an excellent fair-weather companion to the Elise/Exige.

Those pics are a little bit deceiving though due to the color difference. White makes objects appear larger and black makes them appear smaller. My BRZ is black and my Exige is the same color as the one in these pics. I'll put them side by side and take some pics next time that they're both clean at the same time.

You actually get used to it. I was able to do it without using my hands after a lot of practice and I'm not a small guy.

its not a problem if your a short person but taller people it requires some creative thinking.
I think alot of people end up going in butt-first because it allows them to fold forward and get their entire body inside.

I liken the entry/exit similar to getting in/out of a bathtub if there was a window that goes up to your waist.

Size differences aside, the Exige is such a fantastic looking car.
