Favor To Ask Of Miami FD Owner

Im buying an FD in a few weeks that im bringing from another state and i have never sat in one. Im a big dude and i fit fine in my FC but i have heard FD's are tighter. Im not tall just big. IF i could meet up with some one just to take a seat in and take a feel LOL i would appreciate it.

Yea but which one of us would you rather have your back in a fight Moose? =)

In all seriousness, I'm 6'6" and 240. Non-sunroof models I'm fine in and the aforementioned Dale Clark has the most comfortable "tall guy" setup I've sat in. I'm making some of his adjustments for more comfort in my car.

That being said, being tall is a different issue than being wide so you are best checking with some of the guys who resemble squares than I do. =)

I have heard "Big John" 20B 3rd gen fits in a 3rd gen with a smaller size steering wheel and stock seats with some sort of "dance" to get positioned into the car, but I have never seen him in an FD in person. But i am pretty sure he fits in it as he owns a RHD =)
