I am 6' 4", been driving Z's for almost 30 years and have only hit my head once -- on a stupid Z-31.

6'0" no problems for me. My dad has ridden with me many times and he's 6'5", he just goes butt in first then swivels without problem

6' 260 here. I have to 'slide' in and pull myself out. The left side of the driver's seat is going to wear out sooner than the rest of the seat.

I got a ginormous head. It's a good thing I don't hit it or I'll leave damages

6'. Only ever hit my hat on it. I wear a big *** funky hat that adds about 4 inches to my height for work. Hit the damn thing all the time getting in when I forget to take it off first

Never hit my head but I bang my knee in the door about every other time I get out of the Z.

No problem here---I "trained" for my Z coupe by driving my Miata for 10 years! Compared to that, getting into my Z feels like getting into a big Buick Park Avenue to me!

6'3" here and I've never hit my head getting into the Z. I do it all the time in vehicles I have to climb up into though, like my van or the work truck.

There's ample leg room in the Z with the seat slid back. If there were more adjustment available in the steering wheel height, I'd take advantage of it, but I have no complaints.
