The gt2 seats are actually more comfy too
The 6 seats that were in the .1 RS I was seriously considering, became one of the main reasons that car initially didn't shine for me. They would have been way to confining for street use on my delicate 6'6" 235lb bulk....
BUT, in no way does that imply your wife shares any similarities other than my "opinion"

Just when I think you're going to run out of things to do to Kermit (and I'll get a chance to buy it on ebay) you change the look again and, it looks great! I would have thought the non-black wheels would look too sedate, but it's a nice clean look. Question: I've read so many negative things about the seatbelt harness - is there any reason you haven't put a roll bar in, even if just for the seatbelts?

As far as the roll-bar, ok here goes (and no laughing!): I actually had ordered the RS roll bar for the car _before_ she even got delivered. The trouble it sat in my office and when the RS' started showing up at the shop customers kept wanting one. So I'd re-order it. The same thing would happen over and over again... Until I couldn't actually re-order them anymore
No joke.. somewhere in that time I wanted to do one of Tony's roll bars instead so I'll get around to that

thanks jim... this time she's done and just being driven/enjoyed:P I really can't ever see myself selling her. Besides I have a lot of miles that need to be racked up

I hadn't even considered blue, but it sure looks great. Why are you selling it, especially after just picking up the seats?

will do another run ...
So, being insane, I really want to get a '10 ...
any takers???
