Dunno how you older folk do it, the car feels like it was made for teenagers that are about 5'8" and 140lbs. I'm not far from those measurements and cramped up in this car.

Hmm I am around 6ft and 200 lbs and have no problem in or getting in/ out. I find its all in the technique haha

5'11" and 165 here, just doesn't feel like i fit anywhere close to right. Steering wheel is in my lap, no leg room, console and door arm rest are way too low for comfort.

But then I get out, turn around, look at it and say "worth it".

Wish this car had the interior of the Z3 I had before it though.

Weird. I'm not a little guy yet have no issues getting in or out of my Box comfortably. And driving it? No issues. Very comfortable car. (except for the aftermarket seat I sit on! Oh, to find a decent real Porsche seat!!)

Adjust your seat and steering wheel

The steering wheel only telescopes and the seat only goes back/forth and reclines.

My old box with power seats and my new box without both have seats that raise and lower.

I'm 6'-1" and 225 lbs and will be 61 by the end of the year. German engineering ensures a comfortable fit. Did a 12 hr road trip to NC in the spring. No problems what so ever.

I need to find this adjustment, I spent a few minutes on my test drive looking for it with no luck. About didn't buy the car because I couldn't at least lower the seat to make everything more comfortable.

[Dzl210]

I retract everything I said, I found the adjustment. When I first pulled that lever, it moved the lever on the back...so I just assumed it was like a lot of cars and that was one of two ways to collapse the seat forward.

Found a how to, pulled the lever, pushed back, nothing. Pushed forward and came up, pushed back again and now it dropped.

Glad I didn't pass up buying the car now, it fits me almost perfect.

Glad you figured it out! It's amazing what you figure out on the forums... I have had many oh **************** so that's what that does moments

And at 6-3 my headrest is inside the rollbar and I need to get my rear end to the center side of the seat before bringing my head in and clutch actuation can be iffy and I'm worried about knee clearance when I install on board computer stalk.
