I don't see how that is possible since the 86 has only 4.5 inches of ground clearance to begin with unless you're draggin' parts!

That said, I can tell you that FatherInLawHawk who has some mobility issues cannot get in and out of my FR-S. Since they live near us and we often do things together that is one (of several) reasons we recently purchased the '04 Suburban shown in my Owner's Journal.

You have to be pretty limber to get in and out of the 86 regardless of age.

Visit my Owner's Journal where I wax philosophic on all things FR-S
Post your 86 or see others in front of a(n) (in)famous landmark.
