yup, i'm currently around 283lbs, (been as heavy as 295lbs w/in the last year), and I fit in the Z. It's snug as hell, but I fit. It helps that I'm only 5' 10". Basically, I sit ON the seat bolsters and the back bolsters instead on inside them.

my friend is 240-250lb and looks cramped in the passenger seat. another friend of mine thats 250+ looked even more cramped sitting in the driver seat. can't imagine how a 350lb guy would look. sorry not trying to sound mean, just curious

I am 5'11 225 and have no problems. My brother fits and he 6'2 315. The largest person to sit in my car was a just to listen to the stereo. He didn't go for a ride. It was a tight fit but he is 6'7 and around 400.
