Regarding Jim McParland's Starion:

> 5. Can a 6'3" American sit comfortably in it ? I'll bet I can't.

Both Jim and I are over 6'.  I'm also FAT and I am quite comfortable in it.
(Jim used to work down the hall from me...) Oh, and the gauges are NICE.
They are electroluminescent horizontal bar-graphs (z-shaped) whose intensity
is varied with the dash lighting, and more brighter with the lights off
(for daytime).  The fit and finish IS excellent, and the car turns corners
very nicely.

I'll buy American if I can get what I want.  I did last time.  But next time,
unless Detroit can come up with the equivalent of a good foreign ``sports
sedan'', I'll buy overseas.
