I agree, but have you thought about a 350Z?

SO what is an ideal height/weight to fit in comfortably, not snug? This was my only worry if I were to purchase an S2k, I am not that tall or large, but I just like to have some extra room coming from an Accord owner...

I will join in, I'm 6'3" and weigh 230lbs and fit just fine. My leg also hits the radio door when it's down.

jschmidt - good idea removing the hooks, I will check into that this weekend. I also struggle with seeing traffic signals, although that is the case in all my cars.

6' 3" and 230 lbs here.

I was confident that when I went down for my first real look at a S2000 that I wouldn't be able to fit. To my eternal joy, I found out that I did fit, and that the fit was quite comfortable.

My youngest son is 6' 5" and he rides frequently with me without complaint.

6'6"/ l80# Yes it's snug, but it's such a fantastic car I don't care. I have ridden in the passenger seat though, and it is terrible. Can't even get my legs under the dash. Have to sit there with my knees in my face. Driver's side is fine. If I put my feet beyond the pedals, I can stretch my legs straight out.
