Hello:

I'm new to this forum and currently debating between a used boxster, Z4, and S2000. It's gotta be a convertible and manual smile.gif I'm 6'2" and concerned with working the clutch in the boxster.

Yesterday I sat in a boxster and noticed that the steering wheel couldn't tilt up. Is that right? I'm I not finding the lever to tilt up? Because of this I couldn't comfortably place my feet and my knees were hitting the steering wheel. Do other tall drivers have this issue?

I test drove the Z4, which permits the steering wheel to tilt up so it wasn't an issue.

Apologies if the questions are pretty basic. I'm completely new to these cars.

Thanks,

PJ
