Calling all you tall people

I'm 6'5" and about 240. I just can fit in the car. Don't think it would work withh a helmet on though. For long road trips, the seats get a bit uncomfortable. The bolsters for your legs and back get a bit tight.

I wanted a sports car that number one I could fit in and be comfortable. I`m 6'6" and I fit perfectly in my 370Z touring convertible! I test dove a half dozen sports cars before I knew this was the car. I have taken 9 hour drives with this car and no problems. My only caution is that depending on your build you may or may not fit comfortable. I`m more torso than legs, my concern was not leg room but head room, and there are no issues....

Im 6.0 250 lbs once im seated its fine, I find it a little difficult to get in and out without opening the door all the way out not too good for tight parking spots.
P.S do you work with ATR's just curious looking at your avatar

6'5" and 220. Fit good but my right leg is cramped with the console. With it had tilt steering.

You're right about that. I'm 6'3" and about 230. Comfortable in the car but after 3 months I still find it difficult to get my feet through the door if it isn't open all the way. I had hoped to get better at it with practice. I take way more than my share of our narrow garage and it sucks trying to get in if someone parks too close to me, but other than that there's no problem.

I'm 6'4 and all is great!!!

Sweet370 · 07-08-2010, 07:39 PM

Im 6'3"- 205lbs- i can fit in it fine but its not as comfortable as my g35 i just traded in or the 350z i had- Theres not as much leg room because the seat doesnt go back as far as the 350z. Plus the lower back of the seat seems to stick out farther then both the g and z which im trying to get used to. Ive had the car less than 24 hours so I cant give a valid response but ill report after some time.

sonic370 · 07-08-2010, 07:43 PM

no problem at all. in fact there's a little extra leg room just to the right of the foot rest that wasn't there in the 350.comes in handy on long drives.

Vegitto-kun · 07-08-2010, 10:22 PM

I am about 6"1, fits perfectly fine, though I do need to put the seat aaaall the way back. I am lucky my arms are long so I can still grab the steering wheel comfortable

6' 4" and lovin' it! The salesman who sold me my Z is 6' 7" and he drives one, too! Don't let height stop you!

6'4 195, and I fit fine, but lets be honest, we fit because we want too, if it was a minivan I'd swear it was too small.......

Definately worth the squeeze though!

I'm 6'2" and fit comfortably.
