Driving an 05 SI

Ok so i'm interested in the 06 si thats going to be coming out, but I look at these SI's and the gear shifter is on...the dash board? Is this harder or easier to drive than where a shifter should normally be?

i test drove one of them i think it was easier to make quick sfits but then again i had a truck at the time, im much much happier now that i have my 00 si and personally would never buy one of the SI's made after 00

The shifter is actually in a very comfortable position. The hatchback seems a lot "roomier" than the couple as well.

In the UK you can get a Type R... 200hp - 6 speed. Honda needs to wake up.
