Default It' IN!!!

YIPPPEEEEE!!!!!!!
Well, it's finally here!!
I'm impressed with some of the '01 changes..
LEG BRACES?? Better seats? Glass tint?
6 SPEED? Spoiler? - all there and the list goes on...

I'll toss a picture up after I take delivery - Amulet RED is a really impressive color indeed except it should be called "write me a ticket red"

Default Please be more specific about the changes. We're listening.. :)

The 2000's had a leg brace, the roadster does have slightly different seats, but I'd be really interested to know if the seats changed in the Coupe. I am having one replaced under warranty and it'd be cool if there is an improved (read: non-squeaky) seat.

Thanks<p>Ivan

Default Details, Details, Please

Please describe the changes in the seats and the leg brace. I have some trouble in my '00 with the brace cutting into my right leg in in-town driving.

Default So far as I am aware...

There are no changes. The seats are the pretty much the (except the headrests aren't adjustable, the braces appear to be the same, and the tint appears to be the same. I believe that this gentleman has the optional Baseball Optic leather, which has the baseball stitching, and a texture on the seat, but otherwise, things aren't really different.

Default Re: So far as I am aware...

Maybe it's all subjective, but I seem to be seeing subtle changes in the look/fit/feel of the 2001 225 Q vs the 2000 180. things "feel" more solid, the seats "feel" much more confortable, the adjustments for fit are much better, the cross brace under the hood is beafier, forged wheels instead of cast, the 6 spd gearbox has a much more solid feel, the suspension cast and tightness is waaaay more solid ....and it not friggin SILVER...

Default Mmmmmm beefy. Interesting observations. I guess the strut bar would be beefier since more power?

How much mileage do you have with the 180Q?
