It's hard to tell if you're serious or not with quotes like "ur ass in on fire", but just in case. Yes, the center console on mine does get warm too. Also on a very warm day, the leather seats can get uncomfortable with shorts. Turn the A/C up and you'll be fine. The A/C helps even with the top down.

The transmission tunnel gets hot. Good for keeping food warm.

Otherwise, everything else is fine.

I noticed that the interior gets a little warm, but nothing to worry about.

Yea, it's the transmission tunnel. If you put your hand over the little hole of the emergency brake, you'll feel a lot of heat.

I get heat from the transmission tunnel as well, but not from the seat.

Don't feel bad about it. Compared to my old RX8 it's nothing; we used to joke about baking bread in the center console.
