well, i did speak w/ Jack Hollis directly (you can read that else where in the forum) at the premier where he told me explicitly 6'5" is the max. exactly what that means i'll have to determine for myself when i finally do get to sit in the car. from looking at the video it really does look like another two inches is probably where you'll cap out in this car. even if i don't fit i wouldn't trade my height for a thing in the world. that much i can tell you.

I am also interested in seeing a video clip/pictures of a normal sized driver with people in the back. I am surprised there have not been more of these yet. Not sure why we need more pictures of the same car, as it still looks the same as when I saw it 1 month ago.
![]() Sounds vaguely familiar to hear. Btw, I think my wife owns the same sweater as that guy in the video. |

one thing that makes this height thing a little weird when people get to talking about it is whether or not they're referring to their height with/without shoes. like i've said elsewhere w/ out shoes i'm 6'4.5" but i pick up a half inch pretty easy when i throw on a pair of shoes.

problem is w/ the Z (and apparently not w/ the AS1) is you sit way too the hell high for a sports car seating position, which IMO should be low.

6'7"... I'm feeling pessimistic about my chances.
I just registered for my press pass for the Toronto Autoshow, but if there won't be a BRZ there than I'm driving down to detroit this weekend. |

At 6'2 I am starting to get hope back that I will be able to fit in this car.
Just can't wear my motorcycle boots when driving it, LOL!
