Good Morning. Now I have to drink my coke before the security screener.

Well at least they prevented this massive attack.

Personally, I'd prefer to be safer to fly, than have a terrorist plot succeed. Wah wah wah, I'm inconvenienced. Never mind the possibilities of more attacks on the US.

Since it's essentially impossible to make us 100% safe from terrorists, and not even the remotest infinitessimal possibility in a free society, I'd rather have the convenience.

No offense, dude, but I think you'd have a hard time fitting in one. I have a GM (my wife's primary car, but I'll take it if she'll ever let it go ) and I have a hard time getting comfortable. I'm only 6'3 230 :|

The RS has that much less leg/headroom than the WRX? Is it just because of the sunroof?

Seriously... all they are doing is taking a grain of sand away from the sand box of ways the "terrorist" can get at us... I'm glad they got them, but now for EVERYONE to take to be inconvienced after the fact is kinda retarded... They caught them the first time, so why do they have to go an extra measure for "saftey" when it's obvious the first measure worked perfectly fine?(so far atleast)

Shoulder room and the footwell are identical in the GD. Seats will take care of the shoulder space (and add headroom usually) and possibly the legroom as well. I suppose the GD seats are set farther back in the sedan-only WRX than in the GM?
