I have the same loaner as Saint - I'm so short that the rear spoiler sometimes blocks my view. I have to say - so far - I'm not impressed. I asked if they had something that was a stick shift and they laughed at me. I ended up taking my 5 to a closer dealer than the one that I bought it at. They had never even seen a manual trans 5!!
Sheez, I miss the roominess of the 5 - even in the 6 I feel totally cramped. Also, the 6 doesn't feel nearly as responsive as the 5 did - maybe the 4 speed automatic just doesn't compare to the peppy 5 speed. Oh, well. I'll probably call tomorrow and ask if they can get me into an MPV.
