congrats! I love the SSII. Can't wait for mine!

how do you like it with the moonroof? does it feel a bit more cramped or is it not that bad? Would you say it's worth it?

I'm creating a drool puddle here at my desk. That's exactly the way I want it, except in Jerez. Congrats on a very classy looking car.

Thanks.

The question about the moonroof... I guess the only reason it may feel more confined is due to the decreased head room? They have to put the motor for the thing somewhere in there...so yea...I guess the interior roof would be lowered to some degree...but I would not sacrifice the open air for an inch more head room and I'm not a small guy at 6'1". I love the option to breeze it wide open. Here in Houston the weather is really mild even in the winter so it was a no brainer. The cabin seems smaller when the moonroof is closed and the sliding sun shade is pulled shut, too. So even when the moonroof is closed I leave the sliding shade open (that might change in 100 degree Texas heat) for a less confined feel. I think you have to get the moonroof with the sedan. It's not as though you sacrifice the carbon fiber on this model...so for resale and enjoyment I think it's a must.

Oh, and for the people not sure about the true color IRL of the Bamboo Beige....it is peanut butter.

How do you know? Spill some? Eating a peanut-butter and jelly sandwich in the car is not recommended.

To the poster in London with the Ext. BB leather quiry:

The Anthracite helps the transition from beige to the black dash board because of the speckling in the detail of the wood trim. I don't know that the extended beige would look as seamless up against the silver trim or even the carbon fiber trim...but the design of the interior is beautiful...so even if you are holding your breath and waiting to see your choice IRL...there is no chance you'll be dissapointed.

I wasn't sure myself about the SSII with BB...but once my ass hit that bucket seat, I was all smiles...and you will be, too.
