Question 2nd gen front and back seats.

I know they're supposed to be really small(and i heard, not available in the us).

anyways, I live in canada, and me and all my firends are over 6' tall.

the most important question is this:
1. hows the legroom/headroom up front? okay for a tall person?

2. I knwo the back seats are small. but would they at least fit two tall people all schrunched up for a 15 minute ride to the mall/bar/wendys?

is there a console separating the rear seats from eachother, or are they bench style? could someone post pics?

thanks.

I just recently took the back seats out of my TII. There is little room for passengers back there but I can say I've had two fairly tall people(about 5'8") fit schrunched up for about a 15- 20 min. ride downtown.

I'm not saying you won't get any complaints from them but it will get about four including yourself where you need to go.

If your looking for a set I'd be interested in selling them. They're black in color and except for a small rip in good condition. I'll see if I can't get some pics up in the near future. Email me at spvolt10@hotmail.com if your interested

Front Driverseat is quite comfy for me at 6'1". The ECU is on the passenger side and takes a few inches of room from the feet but is still ok.

The back seat is small. Very small. Very uncomfortable. Never ridden there myself but the few adults that have never liked it. I have hauled 4 adults in my car when in college. Make sure the people in the back like each other and you'll need to move your seat as far forward as you can so the person sitting behind the driver can have a place to put their feet. Basically all the people in the car will be uncomfortable for the whole ride. But you WILL make it

I'm 6'5", and while I'm very comfortable driving, a different shaped person may not be. My brother of the same height always turns the wipers on with his knee when he changes gear

As for room in the back, I've driven 4 people around the block... in an emergency I could go longer, but being this tall my vision was mostly of the sunvisor / roof, because I had to have the seat back so far up. it was quite laughable really. 3 people is *ok* but much better if one of the passengers is small
