I saw the thread for lowering the seat, i was about to do it, then decided not to modify the seats and try to make them work as is, if that failed, then i was going to mod it.

I used to swing my legs out first, but the Clazzio suede seats put a stop to that. I think the trick to being over six feet and exiting with any grace is powering your way out with both hands on the wheel for leverage.

Secret for tall people whose knees hit the steering wheel. Dont slide your seat all the way back, slide it forward two to three clicks then lean the back as far back as it will go. Viola, i finally fit in my car Still cant see traffic lights though. Im 6' 3" by the by.

that sucks, the s2000 is one of the few reasons I am happy not being any taller. I think 5'-10" is about as tall as you can be to sit comfortably in this car. maybe 5'11"...

Im not entirely sure about AP2s, but its always a good idea to keep an eye on your fluids regardless.
And no the car will not warn you when your oil is getting low, if you see the red oil light of death, its already too late.
A depressing secret; AP1 redlines are actually 8900 rpms.. SSSHHHHH
