In my dealings with the Max, having the front seats adjusted to fit me
(5'10", 34" inseam), there was not as much leg room in the back as the SHO.
I don't have the "gangsta" lean on the seats, as I sit fairly straight up,
with a little incline.  The Max backseat was a little tight for me than it
was in the SHO.  I don't know your experiences, Ian, but it I think you have
a few more than I do with the Max :-)

Now, if the Max was a little more visceral, I would be over on the Max list
and not here :-)  If the deal goes through on that 88 M5, I would have made
the transition completely to the "dark side" :-)  Then sell my SHO...
