Oh yeah, from what I've read the steering wheel isn't too friendly to taller people. Add to my list.

My three wishes...

Since I believe a very good Cruise Control will be provided very soon by Cruise Control 451, my three wishes for my car are as follows:
1.) Fully tilt and maybe even telescoping steering wheel (even if it's like the new Saturn Astra has on it)
2.) Steering wheel controls for the radio, change channels, volume up and down, seek and scan.
3.) Turbo charged engine or Diesel powered engine, perhaps BOTH...

(I actually think the European cars had more head room and the driver didn't sit so high up, since I seem to notice the top of the windshield much more in this car than the one I drove this summer, and in that former car I was not all the way back as I am in this car and my legs are still not straight out.)

Harley duo,

I noticed the same thing as far as the seat goes on my 451 test drive. I kept on trying to push the seat back, like in the commercial/utube with the german giant. I'm only a 6'2 german giant, and was wondering where all the room went......s! I still fit in it comfortably, but not like I thought.
