- heated seats that would allow the driver to sit 1" lower in the car
- tilt steering wheel
- dark grey seat and door inserts so the black interior has some character
- rear speakers
- more color options/variations available in the US
- a Type R version with stiffer suspension, bigger brakes/wheels/calipers, some weight removed and a bit more power- but still keep the high rev 4-cyl

Make it like the MR2 Spyder, or Boxster convertible top. I am the type that prefers the look with the boot cover on so I install it most of the time, even though it's a pain in the a$%^ . Also, I would make it a manual instead of power top, works just as well but simpler and lighter.

Also, much prefer cloth seats than leather.

Some great answers. Here are the changes I'd like:

1. 17" wheels
2. Full compliment of gauges (ok to remain digital, but add oil press, oil temp, trans. temp. etc.)
3. Better sound system with rear speakers standard
4. A tonneau
5. Better colors and more of a choice.

SAABS have fans in the seats to cool you while you drive on hot days. I did event with them in Limerock, CT and one of 9-5 convert's had them in it. It was great.
