Personally, I like that the 370Z is nice and fitted. I'm 5'10.5" in sockfeet and 190# (cutting to 180-185). It should fit like a glove.

It must suck being tall.

*Feels better about being short now*
Your at what I consider pretty much the perfect height and weight for the Z. You'll probably feel like it was made for you.

(I on the other hand, feel like han solo et all in the trash compactor scene in star wars when I drive around in it).

/\ Red, I can't imagine how you'd fit in the 370z with a helmet on unless you have a freakishly short torso or have the seat reclined much further back than normal for spirited driving. I'm only 5' 10" (barely) and sitting with everything adjusted excatly like I'd want it, I would be hitting the roof or just about with a helmet on. Luckily, or not, that's a non issue for me but the 370 def in a bit short on head room imo.
