The car was IMO perfect. I wish I could have driven it, but looks like we still have to wait a little longer. My brother got to ride in it when the driver decided to move it and he said the ride was pretty smooth. The shifts were short. If all goes well, I will buy this car. That is if the drive is as good, if not better than what it looks like

Nice to meet Poorman, Deuce, and Julio out there tonite (i was the guy w black hoodie/first 86)

I mostly talked to the inside line guys and Young from fiveaxis, both had tons of positive things to say about the car, both were SUPER nice guys. I didnt have my camera...so i didnt take pics...i totally got jipped out of the ride along in the parking lot by some dude...i freaking asked the inside line guy to sit in it while he moved it and he said OK and this weirdo just hopped in LOL

After sitting in the car i'm pretty certain i'm gonna hold my spot and take delivery of the first 86 car , seats are comfy, its low, really doesnt feel cheap, plastic portion of the dash is soft touch, red stitching was present, red seat accents were present, back seat is usable if driver is 5'6 or under and passenger is 5'6 and under for short trips (i'm 5'6 i sat in seat, adjusted it to comfort, and hopped in the back and was able to breathe but not much else lol), overall it just feels good to sit in, pedals/wheel/shifter are positioned in harmony with each other

Clutch/pedal position also felt great, shifter is short, easy to move around, center console is pretty shallow, 2 cupholders are provided that lift off and away, each door also has a cupholder, glovebox is pretty small, sound is actually pretty impressive in stock form, not too quiet, not obnoxious, trunk is SMALL, especially if youve only seen pictures you might be surprised at how little it is

Im 5'10 and could barely fit in the back when a 5'8 guy sat in front of me. I'd feel good if it were a short trip that was less than 10miles long, but after awhile i think it would start to take a toll on me.

The trunk is small but i was able to lay in the back with the back seats folded down. But no room for your "late night with a girl" type of night. No "CAR-masutra happening back there. lmao

[Julio86]

Lmao true man I saw when you hopped in there like a mad man lol. I know what you mean about the back seats . I used to enjoy my tc space when I would fold them down lol. The Front seats cradled so well though.
