This is a great visual. I dont know how difficult this is but could you possibly do this for an NA Miata? 1990-1994? This is what I currently drive. If it is a pain no biggie.

Side note: I fit great in the 94 Miata. It is amazing how much room you add when you take away all safety features!

not of a 90-94 Miata but you get the idea. Obviously from MotoIQ

Thanks so it looks like my car is a little smaller all around. I love small cars but if I don't fit in this then I will be forced to go with the new 2.0t gen coupe. I hope I dont have to do that.

If you can fit in a 370Z you will probably be able to fit good in a BRZ.

The front bucket seats are relatively wide so the side bolsters don't hold you too tightly, and the dashboard sits like a ledge in front of you

doh, sounds like they might of widened them for us fat Americans, hopefully not too much

I've seen both GT86 and 911 generation 911 in the metal and the 911 looks massive compared to the GT86 (and the 997 generation 911 for that matter).

Looking at the diagram above I'm not sure its to scale, as the wheels on the BRZ will be 17" and the difference in length is supposed to be 10", it doesn't quite look right to me.

[edit]Just noticed the graphic is a 997 rather than a 991, doh.[/edit]
