Any "big" owners?
I wonder if I'm the biggest...
6'0", 300lbs on a "bad" day, 285 on a good day. I'm actually fairly muscular and not as "fat" (rounded) as the weight would make one think - I've got a spare tire - but mostly, I've got pretty big arms and legs. I know I can leg press around 800lbs, from last time I was at the gym, and I'm a drummer and play like a 900lb silverback. ;) Anyhow, I fit in the car (else I wouldn't have bought it). A bit tight though. The only thing is that the sides of the seat dig into my thighs pretty good - I tend to sit on my right butt-cheek, if I shift and sit mostly on my left, it's not as bad. Getting in/out of the car is a bit of a trick. I haven't decided if I should turn, plant my feet, lean forward and stand up, or, if I should reverse how I get in, one foot in, one foot out, where I'm mostly facing forward and slide/stand... I also have my knee rubbing against the center console. Seat doesn't go any further back, and I keep the back more less upright, as it's comfortable for my arms and I don't hit my head where the headliner comes down near the hatch... Anyhow, anyone else "big" w/ similar issues? LOL... |
Try lowering the front of the seat with the wheel on the side. It worked for me.
|
WHat about pulling steering wheel up to the highest setting pulling seats as far back as they go and reclining them half way that may work!
|
I'm 6'4" and 220lbs. I fit, but the seat is all the way back. I don't have any width issues.
|
I'm having fit problems also. 6'3" 260 lbs. My rump rides the sides of the bottom part and my back doesn't fit well either. I may have to resort to a custom fitted seat. Probable will take it to a car shop that does interior work. Have no problems with leg room or arm length.

I'm 6'1" 280 lbs and here is my story haha.....
on June 4th of last year I weighed in at a whopping 376 lbs....and could never have dreamed of owning a car like this (hence the big *** Titan). So one day I woke up and decided to stop shoveling food down my pie hole. 10 months later, and 100 lbs lighter....the Z is my present to myself haha. I've always wanted one, never could fit comfortable. Hard work and dedication has payed off. No gimmicks, no slim down quick diets. I'm never going back. Weight still declining, I'm a happy Z owner =) And back to the point of the thread, I fit rather comfortably at 280 lbs. Seems almost like 3k miles later...the seat has conformed to me a bit. |

I am 6'2" and I weigh 210, mostly up top in the shoulders and chest, not a ripped middle by any means, but not fat. I fit like a glove in the car, the seat holds me perfectly tight and I don't even have the seat all the way back. My knees ride a little high, but I like to sit a little closer to the steering wheel. As the saying goes... "fat on you is fat on your car" |
I'm 6'4" 215. I have to sit with the seat all the way back and down and just barely fit. It's gonna be interesting getting in there with my helmet on.
Ps. there needs to be way more lumbar support on the base seats, anything over 1 hour and I'm starting to hurt. |
I'm 6'5" and 250 lbs and I just fit in the car. Seat front is down and all the way back with seat back reclined. I could never fit with a helmet on for road race. I fit much better in my '78 280z. My old '79 280zx was probably the most comfortable car I ever owned.
|
6'5'' 240 ish fit is ok, but after a couple of hours my rump starts to hurt as well. Seems like the seats cut into my rump and thighs. I'll live.....
|
6'0" 260 - I was once muscular but now I'm just fat. No fit problems.
