i doubt that. my j-arse did not fit very well in the car originally. had to get slimmer side mirrors and raise the seat a tad so that i could see out over the side mirrors... never had to do this on any of my j-cars.

it was designed for a 35+ yr old american dood of 6ft 1in and slim healthy build.

so i dont know why mr.k was saying this gen Z is 'not a z.' it's definitely designed for an american, not me.

That's me, except only 31. I am almost too tall for this car and it's tough to get my legs in under the steering wheel in a tight parking spot. Oh well, still love it once I am seated.

I'm a little under the age but can say that i don't think it was designed with a tallish person in the car. I'm 6'2" and have about an inch of space between my head and the roof lining. Still love it once i'm seated though. The bolstering of the seat is almost perfect for me.
