Front/Rear Visibility
I've sat in a Supra, NSX, Vette, and Mustang, and while I'm not the biggest guy around, all the dashboards but the NSX seemed to tower over me.
While everyone complains about the interiors of the MR2 and RX7 too be too small and cramped I think I'd fit right into them.
My question is to all the smaller build owners out there... 5'2"-5'4" how do you find the visibility over the dash especially, and perhaps out the rear as well?

What do you want to see up front?
I am 5'4", I can see the hump on left and right.
After a while, I would slide lower, and no problem with viewing to the front.
Not much different than in my Camry.

Also there's just something about the way a car is built concerning how the seat wraps around you. Toyota's seats seem to tower over me. Its not like I'm sitting in it, its like I've fallen into it, or I'm overshadowed by it. Nissans and Hondas fit right.

Get a booster chair :-) They have some really sweet five point harnessed ones!
Sorry, had. I have never driven any of the other cars that you mentioned so I cann't relate, but yes, the FD is pretty clear with the exception of the A-pillar.
