Different driving position?

Does anyone know if the seats will be the same as in the 4th gen? I'm a shorter guy (5"6) and i hate driving my car, but it would be a lot better if i was taller

Heh.. I think you mean 5'6" right? Well I am too. I don't mind driivng it, but for me, things would be definantly a bit easier if I can adjust the pedals just one or two inches closer. My left leg almost is fully extended when I push the clutch to the floor.

Here's hope that power pedals simply become standard feature across all GM cars in 2009..

My left leg almost is fully extended when I push the clutch to the floor. I can just flatfoot the floor, when putting my feet under the actual pedal itself to touch the floor.

Heh heh, I am 6'4" and my 01 is a little hard to get the seat positioned right. Either my head is against the cieling or I am too far away fromt he wheel. Its hard to find an in between.
