I'm only 5'8" 165 lbs, thin and nimble. Doesn't matter. Still have a scuffed up door panel and can't get the hell out of this car cleanly. It's frustrating how clumsy I feel so don't feel bad haha.

I'm 5'7", 220lbs. A competitive heavyweight bodybuilder. I look ridiculous climbing in and out of my FRS!

To get out, I place my left hand on the door sill to lift/roll myself (basically stiff arm it lol) while using the steering wheel for light support/guidance...it's quite easy IMO unless I can only open the door one notch then it gets a little tight and Spiderman like...to get back in I essentially do the same thing, put my left hand on the door sill and my right on the e-brake and, again, lift/guide myself into center position. Now that I think about it, the latter procedure may make me look like I'm trying to do a seated position on some gymnastic rings lol.

32 years old, 5'6, 160lbs. I work a desk job and go home and spend all night watching TV or playing video games so none of it is muscle at all but I have no injuries.
Getting in an out was a bit of a challenge at first because I didn't have enough strength in my legs but these days it's easy now that I've adjusted to it. If I can open the door all the way, I can just swing both feet out and stand up, no problem. If I can't open it fully, I just need enough space to get one leg out the door, then my hand on the door sill and push myself up and out. I wouldn't say it's much worse than getting out of any other car. |
