Anyone worried about not fitting in the car?

dont think of this as a 4 seater. its a 2+2. and in my case 2 + 1.5 haha

get some thin reclinable buckets and the rear seats are usable again.



you can get these Recaros with airbags too.

i've met dangerfield, Skorov and st162celica in person and they are tall fellers. I'm 1.87m and I fit in it snuggly inside the bucket sea. xD

Dave... are you blind dude..

im a short arse... lol ... 178cm ... with the seat in my normal driving position, doesnt leave much room in the back.

Sure, for 20min trips, i can push up closer and get someone small to sit in the back.

I sat in the back and my head was against the back window. I had to tilt my head forward.

Baby seat will fit in the back, just will be banning my boy from wearing shoes while he is in it. He loves to kick the seat in front of him.

food and drinks will be banned also. i have cleaning spilt juice off carpet in a car !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am a bit over 6' 4 and I fit pretty well in the car. I test drove one last weekend and found that I did fit, but you definitely need to do some adjusting. I noticed that since the roof begins to taper down towards the back, you actually get more headroom by moving the seat forward. There is plenty of leg room to adjust with, so I found that having the seat a bit forward and the rear reclined a bit yielded the most amount of room. If I were to be wearing a helmet I would probably just move the seat a little bit further forward and recline the seat a bit more. I think at that point it may seem like the seat would be reclined to much, but hey, I guess it would just make me feel closer to being an F1 driver.

I sat in a GT today and it was really tight for me, would be too hard to use the clutch in the GT if I purchased the manual.
I'm 6,6 and around 140kg.
Just wondering if the GTS has more room with the leather seats????
If not I would need to do some modifying, maybe seat rails for GTS or aftermarket seats and get the GT.
Your thoughts anyone?

That's a pretty good idea! it's probably lighter too.

Hmmm looking at the auto, has anyone driven this with paddle shift? what's it like?

if its the model of recaro i am thinking it is, then most of the reduction comes from your wallet being empty

Thats good to hear. I was thinking no more lifts for anyone in the 86... since the suggestion was 1.7M tall for back passengers LOL

Very smooth. Shifting is fast and changes gears pretty much immediately when you tap the paddle shift, you don't even feel the shift.

The manual mode shifter is quite notchy as expected from a sports car.
