Cool

So far the average FD owner is 6ft or higher! You guys don't get into the car, you guys wear it!

I was pretty sure they made the FD with Japanese height in mind.

Hell, even the girls are taller than me... (story of my life.. )

I'm 5'5. I fit absolutely perfectly!

Later,

6'0 or 6'1 I have plenty of room, can even move the seat farther back. I might do the rear view relocation though.. My roomate is around the same height but like 290 and he is very cramped lol because of the steering wheel.

Damn! I thought I was the shortest. I don't know how you 6 footers can get into these FD's. My boss is about 6'3". I took him around to show him the FD powah!!(he's a muscle car lover). He looked funny with his knees to the glove box.

5'11" and about 180 lbs. The seats fit like a glove. The only problem I have, is that I hate to drive with my legs stretched out. I Like the seat slid forward compared to my buddy who is the same size. I feel more comfortable with my knees slightly bent. The problem occurs when entering or exiting the vehicle. What a pain. I feel like I am using a handicapped toilet (the ones with the handles). Having a herniated L5 disk in my back doesnt help at all either.

Ok, I guess I'll add my $0.02. I am about 6'2" and about 205lbs. There is plenty of leg room, but the head room is tight. I have to recline the seat quite a bit to have enough room (touring model). All in all I fit pretty good, but I think it would be uncomfortable if I were any taller. Getting in and out is not too bad (the seat is nearly all the way back anyway).
