just out of curiousity guys... are the seats in FN2R automated? i mean do you have to "pump" the seat to move it up and down like in FD2 (i havent try to do this last time i drive one of them) :S

lol, nope, not automated.. bloody cheap ass europeans. As I told my friend.. here's the rundown on allocation of the budget on the FN2 -> $20k goes to european labour union, $10k goes to honda's coffers, $10k goes to shipping and local dealer profits, $2-3k left over for cost of production :P

seat not automated but i wouldn't say it's cheap ass. afaik no car around $40k has electric seats, but GTI has electric adjustment for lumber support on optional leather seat.
