At 6 foot, 190lbs, an S2 Esprit is too small. Which of the S3 and the S4 cars have the largest interiors? Seat witdth and head room are critical. Appreciate any input.

In the UK, the first of the bigger interiors was on the late SE model '93 known as the 'Highwing', this revamp then carried on through the S4 range on.

Not sure if the USA cars were the same. You don't have the Highwing model, but do have the 93.5 and i guess theres a good chance of that having S4 interior dimensions

I'm 6'2" 160ish, with extra long legs, and I fit in my 89SE. I know the 93+ cars are supposed to have more room, but the footwell seems worse to me.

I know people much larger than me driving 89+ Esprits.

Hi Iam 6'-3" and was 231lbs and use to fit in my 1990 turbo. saying that it was a tight fit with my knees so I bought GT3 bucket seats. There is an article on tall drivers on www.lotusespritworld.com which gives you some more tips.
Iam glad to say that Iam only 206lbs now and have an S4s so I feel like Iam driving a limo!!
