and I'm not discrediting the fact that they might be hard to find. I just didnt realize what luck I had on the first two.

I agree that having no rear cupholders suck.but IMO I think 2doors look like stationwagons.I mean dont get me wrong, i love xj's and jeeps, but i would perfer a 4dr over a 2dr anyday.not bashing 2drs either!

Myself and 3 people I know have been thru 2dr 5speeds, heck among myself and a closse friend we have about 6 AX15's. I see alot of 2dr, 5speed, 2wd stripper models around, which is what mine started out as.
Maybe you shouldnt live in the flatland. Ive passes on a few 5speed XJ's in WNC, If i wasnt a traveling student I would of snatched them up and resold them up north

Not so sure if you have ever been in a two door because the seats slide forward and fold so you don't have to climb over them.

Still a pain in the *** compared to having another door that goes directly to the back seats....you also have to wait for the driver/passenger to get out before you can get in...my point is its much less convenient...I already have older people complain how hard it is to get in my jeep, I couldn't imagine if they had to climb in and crawl to the back seat.
