I was unclear.

I Meant the surrounding areas of Ontario around Sudbury.

Manutou Island (2 hrs away), and Kilarney

http://www.ontarioparks.com/kill.html

are both beautiful in the summer, I would imaging they look pretty similar to Rochester, NY in the winter (cold, grey, snowy, etc.).

There is also little traffic on the roads and plenty of good doughnut shops to stop at for coffee.

I'm 5'4" and I fit fine in my BMW M3. It has the 6 way adjustable seat, my sister who is 4'9" is also able to drive my M3. I think the selling point for the RX-8 for me is that I can drive it and my wife can drive it, she's also 5'. I'm pretty sure that for a car that is in the $30k range, 6 way adjustable seats should be a given.

I think all cars should have adjustable pedals so women or men with short legs don't have to sit 5 inches from the steering wheel.

One of the articles in the Media section said the driver's seat is about 2" farther off the floor than in the RX-7, so that people in the rear seats can have their feet under it. I hope the roofline goes up 2" as well, because I already have to have the seatback tilted back a ways in my 2nd gen 7 to keep my head off the roof (I'm a bit under 6'4" and shrinking).
