I think that is a pretty bad move on their part.

I guess it has adaptive seats too, I don't like them at all.
Lot of power though.

My car is due late May.

Adelaide Motors have a stock car now which I assume will be registered any day now.

It has adjustable seats but not the type that move while you are driving like the previous car.  You can turn that feature off you know.

I assume one could turn that ridiculous feature off if desired?
The general public is a terrible barometer of taste. Trust your own sensibilities.

I'm not sure if you can turn it off but you can at least adjust the treble and bass.  :p

I haven't been in one yet but the engine noise in the cabin sounds OK here.
