You said before at max volume, you couldn't even hear the music when driving on the highway? :confused:

Bose's audiopilot worked on my miata.  Turned up the volume as you went faster to compensate for wind and road noise.  I loved it.

Yeah yours had an amp. My car didn't have an amp or the Bose speakers. The Bose headunit needs to be amped but it was trying to drive the speakers unamped.

Rear seats came in handy this summer. We had a couple guests over for a week and they were short enough to comfortably ride in the back. We took my grandma to dinner last night with the top down too. I made sure we cruised around the retirement community nice and slow so she could wave at all her jelly bridgeclub friends. ;)

I'm still really enjoying the car. My only major gripe is that my calipers seem to be getting rocks stuck in them pretty easily. I periodically get a nasty metal on metal grind whose interval seems to be directly tied to the wheel speed. This is more minor, but I want to get some luggage that is fitted for the subfloor in the trunk. We've had to use the backseat for storage during our top-down weekend trips because none of our suitcases will fit in it.

Dufflebags are tricky because you can easily exceed the allowable dimensions if you're not careful. I want the luggage equivalent of a flat rate box: if it fits, it ships.
