Default How do you get into your S2000?

Hi, what do you think is the best and easiest way to sit inside your S2000? In other words, do you first sit down sideways on the seat and lift your legs over the door's threshold and then put your legs under the left side of the steering wheel? Or do you sit down in the driver's seat facing forward and put your right leg to the right of the steering wheel? I guess there are more ways than one to get inside the S2000? Which way do you do it? Which way do you think is best?

^ That, making sure not to crush the bolster even though it was already flattened before I got the car

Put my right foot on the dead pedal and right arm on the steering wheel and drop myself into the seat. Saves the side bolster for sure. Getting out is a little tougher...

Right leg in by putting it to the right of the steering wheel, or under the steering wheel on the left side of the wheel?

Under the steering wheel to the right actually I suppose it would be in front of, yet between the gas and the brake.

6'2" 280lbs. Right foot in first then grab the windshield frame with left hand and lower myself into the seat then left leg. Hard part is getting out without crushing the bolster. Oh well I guess I need to lose some weight ha ha.

I think we can all agree, its just a matter of saving your seats! i tend to fall into my S and swivel doing my best to avoid the bolster. this is an interesting topic though.
