Default Shifter Location

I was just thinking, this is related to my other post but not really. Everyone who has been in a Honda Del Sol or like an 89 perlude knows what im talking about. The layout of the "cockpit" in these cars are very cool and comfortable seeing as how the shifter is elevated and easier, in my opinion, to shift with. You guys with the shifter that go to the floor have to get a short shifter or something, anyways anyone know any cars that the shifter is positioned higher so it is within an easy arm length and easy to shift like the sol or the lude?

new Civic Si is the gayest honda yet, and thats saying alot. even if i wanted an Si, i would never buy the new ones JUST because of the shifter. i think the interior looks pretty good and i sat in one and liked the seats and the dash, but shifter=only reason i wouldnt buy one. but ill prolly never get a honda thats not an S2K so it doesnt matter
