Hello,

My name is Alex and I am looking to buy an S2000. I love imports and have had a bunch of cars, including a 400HP 300ZXTT and a 1JZ MKIII Supra. I have been interested in this car for a long time and would like to say a big hello to all of you!

However, I have an issue and would like to see what you guys think.

I am 6'5" and weigh about 220-225lbs and am not afraid to get in a small sporty car. The headroom in the S2K with the top up is good, but the legroom is 2 or 3" short. I can drive the car barefoot, but it gets a little difficult with shoes on I have been trying to find a way to possibly make some adjustments to the OEM seat or get an aftermarket seat with a slimmer profile to get some more legroom.

Have any other members on this site dealt with this already? My boss is 6'4" with my build and drives the car just fine. I just may be a new S2000 owner if someone can hook me up with some info
Alex - There are many threads on the site which address big and tall. Here's a recent one. If you put "tall" in the search box on the S2000 Talk forum, you'll see more:

Hey guys...
finally my dreams have came true and now i am a proud owner of a 03 Formula red S2K w/37k miles. i compared it to the newer miata's and the speed miata and i gotta admit, i was totally blown away the first time i test drove it.... thanks to my dad i got a good deal on it the local dealership... i guess it is true to other people cause i always have a smile on whenever i drive it... hoping to keep it as long as possible and make it a weekend car.

(pix will be in soon) question??? anyone use nology wires with okada's coils? results?
