Probably easier to sell in the Spring, too. Not going to do a ton of enthusiast-style driving on winter tires

And yes, the sport seats are not even a question. The standard seats are horrible, IMHO of course.
Options matter, yes, but pretending that a specific set of options matters more than just the individual options that make it up is naive.

You don't want to bring a car like that from the rust belt out to California. Especially one with that many miles on it.

Probably so, but I was only kidding anyway. Our next fun car will almost definitely be a convertible anyway.
