Yup! Makes getting close enough to reach the clutch peddle a might difficult at times. Very important with short legs to really see how comfy you are going to be that close to the airbag

Default do you race

I like to compete with my sports cars.

If you are like me, you don't have a local track to go to monthly (or can't afford it), then you can go to the auto-xs you'll want an S2000.

If you live near a track and can do track days, get the Z.

I would get a 4 cylinder over a 6 cylinder (I own a 6 now) just because gas is a killer here in San Diego.

I have to borrow my g/f's Honda Del Sol VTEC because it gets close to 30 MPG!

My next car is going to be a Pontiac Solstice GXP, 260hp, turbo, and with the direct injection engine 27MPG and light. Its got it all

I have to say that the only way your going to know what you like more is by actually going and driving them. I almost killed myself trying to decide between s2k and Z but when i drove the Z......"what S2k?"!!!
