6' 3" here. Just fits! Seats aren't the best but overall no problems. I have to enter a certian way to clear the steering wheel but that's no biggie!

I am 6'2" 190 lbs and feel quite comfortable.
The Z has only 2 seats and not 2+2 like Mustang and Camaro.
Therefore it has much more front room.

I'm 6'5 and I fit fine, as long as the seat is slightly reclined no problems at all, very comfortable car, no issues with leg room or head room.

6'2 and I'm fine. The real question will be fitting with a helmet on. I'll be finding that out this weekend

I'm 6'5"... and all legs. I the back up and slide back all the way then lean the seat back as far as I can.

It's not too bad. I haven't been on any 10+ hour drives yet but I have done a couple 500 mile trips and those went OK. (I don't stop for anything but fuel.) Probably a little tighter than my 07 350Z was but much better than my 2000 Cavalier.

That's funny, my husband said the opposite. He's 6'5" as well and says he has more room in the 370. I guess it's just a personal preference thing.
