Newbie Q's
 

I was looking at the Ralliart and had some Q's for US owners

How comfortable are the Recaro seats?

When you order the Navi and Recaro packages, you get Sirius with it? How is the sound of the Rockford unit?

I assume for the US market no sunroof available?

I just got mine today, and the Recaros are comfortable except the headrest maybe a little rough but its not a rock. The sound unit of the rockford is awesome and yeah mine came with 6 mo. of sirius

If you're in the Pittsburgh end of PA, and not the Philadelphia end, then consider buying a Canadian Ralliart (if that's allowed): heated Recaros (and heated side mirrors), sunroof, and it comes with Dunlop all-seasons (not great, but better than the US stock tires). All for what is currently exactly the same price (in US dollars, anyway).

The leather-cloth (alcantara) Recaro seats are incredible, especially when it's freezing out and they're set to high heat {thumbup} -- the support's actually great enough that my wife's motion sickness has almost completely gone away in the Ralliart. Watch it when you have back-seat passengers, though -- I have watched more than a few passengers in the back fly around while me and the front passenger sat comfortably through every turn... it's not as fun as it sounds to watch people fly around in the rear-view mirror (though the leather-alcantara rear seats are apparently very comfortable when you're not making turns).

The sound is excellent, especially for a stock system -- Sirius beats old-style radio, but it's still just radio: I'll take my iPod over it any day, let me choose my own music.

^Jealous. Heated leather-cloth recaros.
