I didn't realize this car included a CD changer in the trunk. The trunk
is cavernous. So the cassette thing is not really an issue. What they
really need to do and quick is start providing for a 3.5mm aux input to
allow MP3 players to be easily connected to the sound system.
As for the rest of the car, I found the suspension to be way too mushy. I
am comparing this to my SHO which isn't fair, but still the car feels like
it wallows on the road. Braking is also another problem. The car,
already front heavy, feels like it only has front brakes and plows under
hard braking. The ATX has a tremendous amount of lag and feels like it
has a boat anchor holding it back.
I really like that pedal adjustment feature though. What a great idea and
it allows you to find the perfect seating position.
