Lol... @ 6'5", you're simply too tall/big for the Boxster. Let me know how it goes w/ the new seat.

I knew a former NFL player here in NJ. He's 6-6 and used to drive a 996 every day. Granted, 6-5 and up and you are not passing a broom stick test. Actually my friend's kid brother is 6-2 and his head was over the windshield header too even in my GT3 seats which sit about an 1-2" lower than the stock seat in their lowest position.

I am considering a seat change as well! Have the GT3 delete kit on the way. How do you like the sprint seat? The Spring and F200 are options I am considering. Is it reasonably easy to get in and out of the seat? Comfortable for 2-3 hour drives? Much trouble to get mounted - special kits, difficult DIY?

Thanks!
