And as everyone has said, go for the 00-03. I personally like the 03s best, because I believe they have a different ECU (someone correct me if I'm wrong). Also try to avoid the 2000 model, I've heard before a certain serial number, they have transmission problems.
All of you saying you are 6'+ are very slim. Maybe I hould have said girthy people don't fit well? I'm 5'8" and had my seat all the way back but I have long legs for my height.

And it's 02-03 ecu's that were re-mapped. 2000 and early 2001's were known to have trouble with the 2nd and 3rd gear syncs failing in certian cases. MOST were fine and to this day with 100,000 miles+ still are. The 02-03 cars are exactly the same.
