I have an empty cardboard box on the driver side wall of my garage so if I have to open the door more to get out I don't have to worry about it touching the wall lol

Yeah constantly getting in and out of the Z for me (like two three times a day sometimes) does put pressure on my back, especially when I have to try and stand up and get out, in a small opening. LOL. Thats why I always park where there are no cars next to me, so I can swing the door open as far out as need be to get out, but its in my garage I always find it tight, when my other car is parked in there with the Z, its almost impossible to come out but I manage it somehow. I guess with constant practice, you get use to it. :tup:

i think it has plenty of room. im 5'10 and the seat is up alot . very comfortable for me too even while wearing my boots lol

half of me is thinking that people using the steernig wheel as a handle to get in/out of the car puts extra wear on the steering-lock itself. something to think about.

I am 6'4 with long legs. I have the base car. So no leather seats. I fit perfectly fine, no problem pressing the clutch even. the head room is very good too IMO, more than what i though :D
Its a two seater in the end so room should not be too bad. i test fitted my self in my local dealers car. highly recommend doing that .

My buddy is 6'2 ~300lbs and drives my Z comfortably, you should be fine. Head over to the Nissan dealer and find out for sure.

I'm had my friend 6'5 fit in the car. Just play around with the seat controls.

I am 6'2" and the Z is pretty tight, you have to have the driver seat slightly reclined to fit in it, with the seat all the way back. If I try and put the seat in a more forward position, my head hits the headliner and it forces my chin actually down. Leg room side to side is pretty tight to, not much room to move around. I would actually rate it as sitting in an economy seat on an overseas flight. Anymore than 2hrs. in the seats on a Z and you have to get out of it and move around. My old 2005 sentra has more comfortable seats and leg room. So I won't rate the 370z as a good long distance touring car, a corvette is actually a lot better for height and leg room and long distance comfort. If your worried about leg room and height a infinity G35 coupe.

Ya was wondering this wasn't posted in NSFW section :icon17:

I'm 6'6'' and 230lbs and I fit comfortably. For someone much taller then 6'6'' I think the fit would be a bit tight when it comes to head clearance.
