Anyone Hit Your Head Gettin in your Z ?
 
Stopped at the gas station for a snack today... Whan I got in my car I nearly knocked myself unconscious! Dang that hurt... Hell I'm just 5'9", I bet someone taller has done this before. Or I may be just gettin clumsy.

dP3NGU1N 08-31-2013 01:32 AM

Same height as you, haven't had that problem yet. =\

LakeShow 08-31-2013 01:45 AM

Yes I've bumped my head a couple times, probably not as severely as you did lol.

DEpointfive0 08-31-2013 02:06 AM

6'3", don't recall hitting myself on this car. Other cars, yes, not the Z though

KAM 08-31-2013 02:08 AM

I did not, but the wife about knocked herself getting in at a gas station last week.

03WhiteGT 08-31-2013 02:20 AM

No, but I did closed my finger in the door just after I got it. I cried like a baby..

6'4" here. And it hurts like a mofo. Several times.

Z-Girl 12 08-31-2013 06:32 AM

Me, me! I'm 5"9...it hurt soooo bad. I've done it a couple times when in a rush and I pay the price everytime

Jimc 08-31-2013 08:40 AM

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

hahaha, maybe you were just tired (your post 1:23am). :tup:

i too have bumped my head once early on. i have a big head so doesn't help in this case. :icon17:

kfull 08-31-2013 09:40 AM

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:icon18:

Infidel 08-31-2013 10:22 AM

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.

:icon18::roflpuke2: I did that once. now I get in a$$ first with my left hand(6ft)

Jasonle 08-31-2013 11:14 AM

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

SAmilitaryman 08-31-2013 11:14 AM

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!

stretcho 08-31-2013 01:54 PM

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.

///PureSwank 08-31-2013 01:59 PM

My mirror was up one time and I hit the top portion as I was going in.

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.

shaun66 08-31-2013 04:44 PM

I have but I was really drunk.

















Jk.

2xtreme1 08-31-2013 07:07 PM

5"5 here, perfect fit for me.

Pintsize725 08-31-2013 07:54 PM

Is it sad that I'm 4' 10" and have hit my head at least once? Hurts.

122554 08-31-2013 07:57 PM

6' How do you do that unless you're drunk?

NismoZ70 08-31-2013 09:56 PM

I'm a little over 6'4", 270 and have owned both a 350Z and 370Z and have never hit my head. People are usually amazed that I can even fit in the car but no problems.

I am the same, and never hit my head.

kntrider 09-01-2013 01:34 PM

6' 180lbs and have had the car for 5 months and have hit my head a few times even while sliding in. My hair gets messed up plenty of times rubbing against the roof.

gf bumped her head a couple of times and she's 5'7

I have an S2000 as well and have never hit my head on that even though it's much much smaller.

Lunar-Eclipse 09-01-2013 01:40 PM

I'm 5'11" and I've never flat out hit my head but I have skimmed the rubber moulding getting in a few times. It felt like I took a chunk of hair out. :rofl2:

Haboob 09-01-2013 04:48 PM

Haven't smashed my head, bumped the top up and messed up my hair a little bit though.

PapoZalsa 09-01-2013 07:54 PM

I hit my head at first because I was used to my 350Z, now I don't have a problem.

1slow370 09-01-2013 08:09 PM

6'2" never done it. did see a guy a couple inches shorter in rush just wipe out his pillar gauge pod straight up dented the gauge bezel(was a 350 tho)

damian_mb 09-01-2013 10:56 PM

Yup, after pumping gas at the gas station...loud enough where the guy pumpin gas next to me turned and looked...he probably wanted to burst out laughing.

Nismo89 09-01-2013 11:15 PM

never have. hope I never will. lol.
