Wow I just finished reading al the pages of this thread and I must say... You guys are spoiled lol
I am coming from an 07 s2000 and we had 0 heated features, road noise is a B1TCH (try listening to the radio on a rainy day lol), and we didnt have tilt or telescoping steering wheel or nav or anything of the sort.
The s2000 was a 30K+ car too. I have the next PW touring fully loaded that is coming to the states with my name on it. I have about a week till it gets here and I have driven both the base and the touring with and without sport packages and I must say I am impressed enough to trade in my S2k for one. The Glare people talk about on the gauges is not bad at all either. I think the baby's need to go suck their thumbs cause it could be "a true sports car" and come base model like the s2k and no options!
All in all this is a great car dispit a few little gripes here and there with peoples personal preferences.
