The beauty of this guys is that you can easily convince your friends to drive when you are going out to watch the game, or partying! Always a benefit as those places are not typically good climates for parking a mint S2000.

and no - my friends don't complain about my car. its always too clean and nice looking, and most of them can't drive a stick anyways.

I got friends well over 6ft and all of them complain also. But on that note they compliment on how nice it looks and all that good stuff. I laugh everytime anyone of my friends get in or out of my car because they struggle so much(none of them are fat either, just tall). Sometimes I'm afraid they might mess up the bolster on the seats or kick and scratch something.

Well guys, the other night I went out to the club with a freind I havent seen in a long time and never had anyone be so homosexual about my car.lol He hated it! I was like your joking right? I mean seriously??? He told me the ride is TOO rough the Music has too much bass the exhuast is too loud and the car is way to small.

I am 5'8 and yes i do believe the car is a lil small but nothing to have a spazz over. I mean i think this is mans man car. He might be a lil taller then me. 5'10 to be exact, though he is wider then me. I am affraid to say this but mabey you cant gain weight and drive this car??? He even asked where the heated seat button was. It was the most annoying ride ever. I should of just went alone if anyone is going to be that damanding.

Does anyone have this problem with other people complaining about the S?
pure jealousy.
< - approx 6 feet 160ish no problem

Wow im actually amazed at how some of you are saying its comfortable at 6' +

im 5'5" and i find it to fit me perfect like a glove (althogh i have the seat pretty far up )

but the CR seats also seem to have more pronounced side bolsters than the regular S seats.

When I drive a SUV or big car, I just feel like there is so much space all around me. It may be comfy, but it's not cozy.
I completely agree with you. I'm 6'1" and 200lbs and I find the size of the s2k just right. If the seat was a hair lower it would be absolutely perfect. I like not having a ton of extra space. I don't want to feel like I'm swimming in the seat. The s2k felt more like a cockpit and I really like that in a car.
