If you can bare the irony, I guess if strict, by the numbers convenience/livability/ergonomics of the vehicle were all that mattered we would all by driving a luxo-liner, Oldsmo-Buicks with 4 doors, large truck and seating for 6.

The comparison is performance. Not convenience. It doesn't matter how hard the car is to live with. How the car feels is a subjective comparison. If you want to compare convenience, start your own thread. My 74 year old father, who has had knee surgery, and loads golf clubs in the back of the car 3 times a week, has lived with the car for 10 years. Maybe your skirt is getting in the way.
