6'6" and about 219 lbs. I'm all legs and the seat is all the way back. I fit fine, but people think I look funky getting out. Oh well! It's worth it for this car.

One of the reasons I bought this car. There aren't that many sedans I can fit in and have a good driving position, but 86 really hit the spot when I first test drove a frs. I always joke around saying " look at the tall ass clown getting out of tiny car" : P

6'2" 195 lbs. 31" inseam. I have plenty of leg room and plenty of head room. I'm not very happy with the shape of the seat. I feel it doesn't have enough lumbar support and pushes my shoulders forward into a slump position.

Has anyone done any modifications to the seat padding? I'd be interested in seeing what has or can be done.

6'1" 220lbs. Very comfortable in my FR-S. Took a 7 hour road trip. No aches, pains, or stiffness.

Haven't bought one of the twins, but reading this thread has put me at ease. 6'6" @ 240lbs and I was worried I'd have a hard time fitting in one of the twins, especially with a helmet. Now I just have to actually go sit in one and sell my rs :-)

Last weekend I went to dealership and just for fun I asked my wife to sit at the back seat and me directly in front seat. Couldn't fit my legs, lol.
I think it's okay to have 2 short people + 1 driver. or 2 tall people. Or maybe 3 short people + 1 short driver but I think even this is pushing it. You can forget about 5 people.
