Agreed...I'm only 5"9 and I miss it. That is the only option I miss from my G35S. That and the adaptive headlights.

The base model seats give slightly more room in the cabin. I just think its enough to help. But you can't give it whirl? Unless its the base u drove???

Not an issue if you have long arms

I have fiddled around alot with the seat but you know, it's not like I spent more than a few minutes each time I went to the dealer in the past week trying to adjust the two I saw. Maybe there is a combo that I haven't found yet if others my height are not having problems.

Keeping my right knee and leg to the outside of the wheel is good but brake application is difficult.

I'm like 6'0'' or 6'1'' about 190-195lbs.

This x1000.

It'd make finding the driving position much easier. Right now I don't let anyone move it, because it would take me so darn long to refind it. And I'm only 5'10", 165. Can't imagine the contortions a 6'5" person would have to go through to fit. Forget about comfort O_o
