Cougar "Solution" Mid Tower - Super Featured @ Super Low Price?

What do you guys think of the Cougar Solution Mid Tower Case?

It is only $50 CAD where I live and you get a $20 rebate. So $30 for such a well-featured case seems like a freaking steal!

Highlights:
- GPU clearance up to 320mm
- Support up to 8x 120mm fans
- Screw-less for all HDD/SSD mounts
- Air filters for the power supply
- Even holes for water cooling tubes to go out the back!

Should I grab it? SOO tempting!

- no drive rails.
- no drive cages.
- the twisty clip screwless HDD and ODD installations are annoying to use (Cooler Master has had them since the dawn of time, and I ditch them for screws every time).
- comes with a single fan.
- giant side vent (combined with a single exhaust fan...).
- no good places to stuff cables.
- bottom filter, but no front filter. Odd, and wasteful (the PSU should not be moving enough air to need a filter, if the main intakes do not need filtering, as well).

Looks OK for the price, but the price is about right.

I was about to buy this case when I visited Tiger Direct, but when I saw this case in person, I noticed my finger couldn't fit through the back, cable-routing section, and that is bad, as I need more space to route cables through the back.

Additionally, they had a sale for their Corsair 200R for $59.99 with $10 rebate. My finger could fit comfortably through the back-side of the case, it comes with 2 fans instead of 1, and the top exhaust has space for 2x 140mm fans instead of 2x 120mm fans on the Cougar.

So I grabbed that instead.
