Greg: interesting viewpoints after being away! wait you don't have a little side trunk net like worra posted? I have one of those two
the 135is is actually my 'bigger' car as it feels quite large after I drive the TT.....but I totally agree that it is a great size. I don't think I can drive anything larger.....it would make no sense to drive anything larger!
the fact is, a car like that Accord you drove is a gutless appliance meant for peeps who simply do not care about what they are driving. Our cars seem specifically made for people who really want to enjoy their drive. they seem to have lots of enthusiasm built into it.
my daily commute is 120 miles/day there and back....so I'm getting a LOT of seat time in the car these days.
