Strength. You want to make metal strong? Put a bend in it.

I'll vote for a combination of the previous 2 posts - strength and exhaust placement.

Thanx for the input. Guess I'll roll under there one of these dayz to check it out.

"Thats where they hide the dead bodies."

if ur not too tall(im 5'7, she was 5' ), the front passenger seat is great...all i have to say is the headrest provides great leverage when u grip it and w/that hole in the middle, she wont suffocate when her face is pressed into it

TL's come with a dead body!? Sweet.

Yeah, most likely exhaust and whatnot. But I don't see why it should be so freaking big. On another note, what's the diameter on the exhaust pipes on the TL-S?

And why exactly do you want to know the exhaust diameter now?

I've already tried it. It's actually pretty comfy.

If I am not mistaken, the hump is a structural thing. Can't be sure of this.

back to the subject at hand...i cant believe none of ya'll have gotten under the car yet! yes, it is structurally stronger, but it also allows a channel for the exhaust to run to the back of the car w/out being completely exposed/hanging under the car
