Ok I'll be the first to admit I'm a big guy. I'm 6' and a little heavier then I should be. In my 914's, 944, and 951 I never had a problem with fitting in the car comfortably. In the Boxster I feel like I cant get the seat back far enough or low enough. In fact it feels like the steering wheel is sitting on top of my thighs. With the seat slid all the way back there are still about 3-4" of space between the seat and the firewall. Does that sound right? How does one raise the steering wheel or doesn't it? I can see what appears to be an adjuster lock but my wheel doesn't budge.

A little help please... (don't say diet and exercise I'm working on it)

Thanks!
Mike
