Wish I could, but can't do it this year causes that's just a very busy month in which I can't take any time off. Hopefully I will be able to do it next year!

Hmm - gotta go out and try those position specs. That sounds a lot higher than my present seating position, but I did tweak mine somewhat so I could at least see something out the back

I wish the rear view mirror was about 1/2" lower or at least could be adjusted that way.

I've read the same thing about driving position and every time I try sitting that high up, I have trouble seeing traffic signals. I agree about the steering wheel and pedal distance guides though, they work well.

As for videos, I find that YouTube is a pretty straightforward place to upload vids. You can embed them into your threads too.

Have a safe trip home!

Thanks for the tip - I'll try and upload some of those vids here soon.

Yeah, I actually tried lowering the seat height to help improve the rearview, and yes it does help a bit, however then I feel it's harder to see over the front hood, we're pretty low to the ground as it is already.

As for the traffic lights, I occasionally have problems with some poorly placed ones, and in that case just stop a little further back.

So...have you had a chance to open your coupe yet?

As far as ride hight goes...I can get my whole hand in between my head and the roof. Seems about right for me.

Not yet, sadly I only got 700 miles on it so far. Waiting for the magic number - 1200!!

Heck, now that you mention it I haven't even used the sport button once yet either....

Great write-up and pics Doc! Thanks!
