Default No tilt and telescopic on steering column?

I'm looking through the equipment and features sheet on the 2010 Mazdaspeed3 and it appears the steering column won't have tilt or telescopic abilities. Could this be true?!

All Mazda3's up until now had it, and it sounds rather shocking that this model wouldn't.. I'm rather tall (6'4) and this feature could make or break purchasing the MS3...


thanks,

yep, I'm 6'3" and it's the main reason I reserved a '10 Mazdaspeed, from what I understand it will be telescopic and tilt just like the '09s

tilts and scopes just fine. Has a large range too, I'm 6'3 with long arms and I was not at the extreme end of adjustment at all. When I pick the car up on Thursday I'll actually fit it for me. I also did not have the seat as far back as it could go so we'll see.

bought a 10 ms3 last saturday. I'm 6,3 and it does have both tilt and telescoping. Best car on the road for the money. buy it before they raise the price.
