I can't beleive you fit in an S2000, I'm 6'6'' and my head was clear above the windsheild in that car, I felt like big bird in a clown car.

As far as fitting in the Z, I fit pretty well in it at 6'6'', its not easy getting out but I still fit inside pretty good. I haven't been in the car with my helmet on yet so that might be a problem, I might have to modify the seat height to fit comfortably with a helmet on.

6'4" here, it is a nice fit, I would like to lower the stock seats if possible but 90% of the time it never bothers me.

I'm 6'5 225lbs, I live in Canada so I know we're using the same measurements, and I fit inside comfortably as long as I have the seat back as far as it goes.

Another 5'11 - 145 - feels good. Almost need a few more pounds to take full advantage of the thigh pads and actually feel small looking over the dash. But headroom, reach, seat position - all ok.

I'm 6Ft 185 lbs and for some reason the leg room in a Touring is less than the base. I guess is the auto seats. That is why I don't want a Touring, I want to be able to get the seat all the way back.

Has anyone 6'5'' or taller tried tracking the 370z with a helmet on? How comfortable was it? And any clearance between the helmet and the roof??

I feel as if I don't have enough room to sit they way I like after a long period of time.

I'm 6' even at ~200. I prefer to sit up straight and to do so, I would be right up on the steering wheel w/ the seat all of the way back. I am not really a fan of leaning back, honestly. So, in turn, it's one of the things I really miss about my past Subarus.

Leg room is so-so. Taller people complain when they get in my car and try to move things around. Plus, there's almost no room to put your left leg anywhere comfortable on a long road trip. Even worse if you have cruise on and want to move your right leg a bit as well.

Sounds like alot of complaints for a daily driver but I'm being realistic about my desires. I loved it at first but on trips of 300+miles it gets cramped. So I'm thinking rental/second car for those trips heh.

My question is im 6'1 and, i test drove the car befor i purchased and im comming from a 2004 G35 coupe. The drive feels aloooot different which is fine and expected. And in terms of room it doesnt neccessarily feel like theres less (leg and headroom) but i feel more closterfobic. Which i know its just a matter of getting used to being a 2 seater car.

How tall are you? and how comfortable do you feel in the 370?

Thanks,
6'1", 130lbs, I fit with room to spare.
