Deciding between s2000 and 370z.

Are you saying you're too wide for the car or too tall? Because plenty for 6'2"-6'3" drivers can fit the s2000 just fine.

Yeah, keyword "FIT" that doesn't mean their going to be comfortable and enjoy the ride.

I remember back in the day when my room mate and I went to test drive an S2K. He's like 6'2- 6'3 and had to bend his neck sideways just fit in; he was cramped all to hell. Me being just 5'9 fit in the S2k like a glove and enjoyed driving it. The S2K definitely isn’t for everyone when it concerns being able to accommodate.

ok let me break it down for you. I've gone on many other forums to read user experiences. If you're that tall, move the seat forward a click or two and angle the seat back to lean, so you're not sitting straight up looking all stiff.

Many people over 6' fit COMFORTABLY.

"Let you break it down for me"? Break what down? My roommate at 6'2 -6'3 DID NOT sit COMFORTABLY in an S2K. The S2K wasn't designed to accommodate large / tall American body’s period. The perfect physique for an S2K is around 5'8-5'9 and 150lbs or so. People as big as my roommate (6’3 @220+lbs) don't fit well in S2K's with the top up no matter how hard you try. It was hilarious looking at my roommate driving that thing (S2K)! He just looked so retarded in that little roadster!

No, I did not need to bend my neck, but I felt strange with the top down like my entire body was on display. (Not a pretty sight either.) Also, I have broad shoulders and it felt more like a coach airplane seat. The 370Z roadster had better proportions to my body size and the seat felt much better. The seat was tight enough to keep me in position while cornering, but not too restrictive for everyday driving.

That is the key for me, this is my everyday ride to work. I felt like the S2000 would not be as comfortable.

Of course, I am biased. I love the Z. I smile every time I drive, even going to work in the morning.
