Tallest/largest person you fit in the S?
I've had a few people say to me why did you get such a small car I'll never fit in that thing It fits me perfectly I'm 5'6" 150lb and didn't buy the car to lug around a bunch of people but it got me thinking whats the tallest or heaviest person you fit in your S? Seems anyone much over 200lbs won't fit that well lol

I'm 180 and 6'2" (not an ounce of fat on me). I fit like a glove. Only one problem... I can't heel and toe, just isnt enough room for required knee movement.

It obviously depends on proportion of legs to torso and weight but I'm hitting the limit on size in an S2000. 6'2" about 210lbs. I have very little room between the wheel and my legs...maybe an inch. Heel and toe is extremely hard to do.

I have a friend who's a few inches taller than me (I'm 6') and around 350lbs (not lean at all), we have to drive somewhere because his car wasn't drivable. He couldn't drive it because of the limited space behind the wheel, but he fit (kinda) into the passenger's seat

Hands down have everyone here beat. Old friend of mine I used to work with wanted to show me his new car. He had never seen my S2000 in person so I walked him up to where it was and removed the car cover. He was impressed and wanted a ride. Mind you, I'm 6'3, but my friend can probably use the top of my head as a lean post.
It was the funniest thing... he barely fit in the seat and withtop down, his head stuck up ABOVE the windshield frame...
Remember hightower from police academy in the first gen civic? Yeah, kinda looked like that.
My friend is 6'11"...

Practice, practice practice... if you still cant get it, opt for aftermarket pedals. The increased surface area should let you flick the gas pedal without too much ankle twisting.
