Replying to: rsobin (Feb 09, 2007 6:38 am) We Got the True red We do like the Black seats and we felt the tan looked to orange and will be hard to keep clean. The car has a lot of power and fun to drive. We like the fact that the top does not take up trunk space. We looked at the Mini but the dealership was to few and far if we needed service. Mitch

We test-fitted one of these at the auto show but my kids didn't really fit in the back seat. Bummer. The rear seat back is bolt-upright, there is no leg room, and the worst part was they sat so low in the seats that they could not see out - the whole point of a convertible. I wouldn't even call it a 2+2. A booster might help them see but there's still no real space for their legs. I have a 93 Miata and might just end up with another now.

It's butt ugly.
