American Express Auto Purchasing

So even with the fee the final price is still cheaper than any of the other quotes I received. The thing is, today I finally got to see a roadster in person. While the wife liked it, to me it just looks to LARGE. Compared to a BMW Z4 or a Cayman, the thing looks huge. While the measurements provided show it to be around the same size, visually it sure doesn't look it. The high butt shape is probably partially responsible. One other note...the salesman tried to raise the top to show me what it looks like when up and it jambed...not good on a new car. Will it be a problem area ?
