Cessna 162 SkyCatcher

Has anyone actually ordered one of these, or know a Flying Club that has done so?

Been looking for a replacement for my 1976 (10+gal/hr) Cherokee. I know we're in the LSA category here, but biggest concern with the Cessna centres on the useable weight..... all 490 lbs of it. Cessna reckon they will sell 70% to Flight Training Establishments / Flying Clubs. (With a salad-dodging instructor and student and a couple of flight bags that should leave enough fuel for 2 or 3 circuits!)

Would be interested to hear any first-hand info from real-world purchasers.
