Hi there!
I got one. It's named EX Sport here in Sweden.
Sport model comes with half leather seats, silver on dashboard, leather steering wheel, silver/leather gear knob, metal pedals, spoiler, skirts, alloy wheels, fog lights, chromed door handles inside/outside and radiator grill.
Ordered the car without any stereo and bought and mounted a Clarion WXZ468RMP stereo with built in 6 disc cd changer. Made some sound proofing in the rear too. Lifted out back seats, panels and everythin else in the rear. Damped the metal and the plastic panels. Then glued on 2 layers of felt mat to the panels. After that there all of a sudden sounded too much from the front of the car. Proves I did a good job in the rear. When it gets warmer here I'll tear out the rest of the interior and insulate it too.
Fuel consumption is a bit tricky to say. Takes practically nothing when driven calmly, but since it goes like hell and I use that the fc is a bit higher. It's always under 0.5L/10km though.
