Default Zs for Tall Folks?? - What do you do...

Anybody out there 6'2", about 35 inch inseam, that found a way to drive a manual?

I test drove a manual, base 370 w/sport. Knee kept hitting the back of the steering wheel. So I lowered the seat bottom to give my knee room. I could shift fine, but my thighs felt unsupported. Sat in the car another hour after we got back. Back started to hurt an hour later an I spent the next day in bed on flexeril.

I don't have the same problem with the Touring seat and automatic...I love it. But the manual is more fun to drive.

Do I have to rule out a manual, or is it just the base seats?

Was the base model seat different than the NISMO, i.e. usable and comfortable?

Also, I don't have an A$$ to speak of...Comfort?

What solutions have tall people used?
