The Z wraps around you like a sports car because it's a sports car.

Haha ... or you making a joke about the designers of cars like the challenger?

I'm 6'3". Hate that little spot by the start button. But it was a sacrifice I was willing to make to buy it. One road trip so far and I gotta say I'll never do it again. I couldn't really handle it anymore even in my Acura. I still find the Z to be extremely comfortable. Except for bruised kidneys. lol!

Back to the thread... I was in the far left lane of two turn-only lanes and there was about three car lengths of space in the lane next to me to the next car. I notice this car pull up and stop right next to me. I was like, ummmm, pull up! Hello!!! But this person didn't move anywhere and I was thinking they just happen to stop way far back like some other drivers I've seen. But then I started to get the feeling I was being watched. I slowly turned my head to see what was up with the driver and found it to be an old woman with a messed up look on her face straight up staring at me. Like, hardcore. She had even pulled in closer and her tires were over into my lane when she had stopped. I was like, wtf? I checked to see about 45 seconds later and sure as hell, still staring. She didn't move a muscle. Then about 5 second before the light finally changed, she pulled forward and closed the gap in front of her. Really freaking creepy.

I've had quite a few other incidents along the same lines but usually less extreme and many that involve pissed off, pride-less male minivan drivers that are trying to prove something to me or themselves. Not sure which yet.

Im just as tall as you are and I fit snug, I think the Z has a lot of leg room if you recline back.

What you didn't realize because of the blindspots you had cut her off and now she was pissed!

Over the weekend I was in Fayetteville, AR out at night with my brother. Two girls yelled from the sidewalk I like your car. I circled around but then realized I can't even pick them up. (Damn 2 seater)

#1 = passenger lap.

#2 = driver lap?

Maybe just the hatch. Make sure #2 is the uglier one.

That too, offer to pay for his cab ride home. I'm sure two small girls will fit in the passenger seat.
