s2000 owner height
 
Im at 6'4" is there anyone who feels my pain? Im not terribly squished but I wish I was about 2-3 inches shorter. For other tall owners, have you installed an aftermarket racing seat that gave you extra room? If an aftermarket seat like that helps with leg room I would definitely look into getting one.

post height, comments/suggestions welcome.

6'4"? wow you must feel real cramped in the S. i'm 5'8" and even i feel a little squished sometimes. I think I read somewhere about seat rails that lowered the height of the seat a little but that was a while back. As far as leg room goes, i dont think you can do much else besides push the seat all the way back in the most upright position. good luck man.

I'm 6'4 myself. I worried a lot about room in the car until i figured out how to make myelf more comfortable in it. I don't really notice that how cramped it is until I drive something else. I make jokes that if I ever get hit on the drivers side they're going to need to cut the car apart to get me out.

I guess I've just been used to having no room in cars. I've never had a car that I felt was roomy. Supposedly the ap2's have a little more cabin room, but if I was any taller I woudln't have bought the car.

I heard rumors you could get alternative seat tracks and seats, but until I can sit in a car with them I won't spend the money. I just wish for tilt-steering. It would make seeing the tach easier and give me a touch more room under the wheel.

I'm almost 5"11 and I wouldn't want to be any taller, or any wider :) A friend of mine is 6"7 and its funny to watch him sit in my S.

6'4" as well. Fits like a glove. I believe this height to pretty much be the S's limit.

I'm 5'10 and i find it tight sometimes, especially the leg room.

Damn seats dont go back far enough

I'm 6'4" also...230 lbs too...it's a tight fit, but I don't complain. :D

I'm 6'3 190 and find that it's very comfy. With a haircut I could see being 2 inches taller at the max before banging my head on the roof all the time.

I agree to wicked on the seats not going far enough back, they go up far enough for someone 5 feet tall but don't go far enough back for us 6+ guys. I can steer with my knees. But that might be part of the steering wheel angle too.

I think it's perfect in the end, and with the space given they did a good job overall.

I'm 6'4 as well and 285 lb. and I can't say that it fits like a glove. With me the S fits like a CONDOM :LOL:
