So what's hitting? You shouldn't have to lift your knee any more than you would to normally brake.
I have to lift my heel to clear the throttle when braking, blipping and downshifting simultaneously.

how did this get into a heel-toe conversation?? One thing to do is make sure the seat is as straight up as possible before sliding it back, when i first sat in one i didnt do so, and therefore wasnt as able to slide the seat back as far. I am 6'4'' and with the seat all the way back, i fit like a glove, it i grow any taller, i would be uncomfortable.

might i add, most likely u should be looking for a 05 or lower due to 06+ airbag/seat sensor updates.
I believe the 06 is supposed to have added leg room. Mine deff goes back further than my father in-laws 04.

because the sensors can tell how close the seat is to the steering wheel, and it will adjust the deploy force.

and yeah, 6'0", 235 lbs, fit just right!
yeah that what i think we have.

Because being able to drive it properly is part of being able to fit. Isn't that obvious? Or do you just like to sit in it?

Wow, I never thought about that. What would be the point of having a sensor in the drivers seat. LOL.
Dual stage airbags. I don't know if the S has them, but some vehicles do. They explode at a different rate according to the weight of the occupant. Some of our smaller owners would benefit from such a system on the driver side of the S.
