My passengers usually had a good time even after the lecture, but their rejection came from the discomfort. Even before my wife ditched the car because of the harness/roll bar issue she didn't care much for the heat in the foot box and sitting cockeyed twisted her back. I imagine the forward roll bar segment in the 289 cars makes it even worse.
