Getting out it looks like he forgot the keys on the sill. :p

One of these would be fun but at 6'4" I don't think that will happen.

The doors sound like tin but I guess that's the cost of being light weight.

looks like my life - gt3 buckets mounted direct to the floor without sliders. you have to develop a very specific series of 'moves' to get in and get out. and gf can't wear a skirt so as to avoid any brittney spears moments.

That does not look graceful at all and I can't imagine a lady in a skirt trying it.

I am 5'7" and couldnt get in one. I was laughing so hard i thought I was going to pee my pants. of course the guy that owned it was at least 6'.

I love the look of the Lotus but tough to justify a car to the wife when you have to have instructions on how to get in and out!

Up until last November jinx owned a 89 Esprite
She is 6"2' and usually dresses up to go anywhere.
To get in or out when she wore a skirt and heels,
it was my job to Stand in front of her while she would
swivel and swing:chicken:Her legs out, she would
sit on the sill with me helping Her up.
She did wind up slipping off the sill sitting on
The Ground a number of times. Such language.

To get in and out of the boxster I am required to
Put the top down or at least in service position.
Rain or shine.
A quick release steering wheel would help her.
The passenger side is harder for her to get into.
