370 for tall people

[Mabbs9]

Could any 370z owners give me an idea if there's any difficulty fitting in them for tall people please?

I'm 6'4" but been happy in the past with S3 Caterham and also had a 350Z which was also fine.

I think the 370 is a little cosier than the 350? I'll sit in one soon but worth asking first I think.

Thanks

I can't speak for the Coupe, but one of my mates is the same height as you and he fitted fine in my Roadster with the roof up in the passenger seat.

Thanks Cerb4. That's pretty promising.

I'm a fraction under 6'2" but have short legs/long body, only a 32" inside leg!

I would suggest trying before you buy as there isn't much adjustment on the steering wheel and I find my left knee can run out of space.

Thanks Tango. I certainly will. I'm 36 leg so could be tight. I'll report back here when I've had a try. Snug is fine and not planning it too be my daily.

Forgot to mention, I have a Nismo which comes with Recaros which may or may not make a difference.

Gotcha.

How did you get on ? I'm the same height and looking at 370z or maybe GTR

Quite well thanks. The 370Z is a success, I'm sure I'm a bit used to compromise but I'm comfy. It'd be perfect if the reach was adjustable. It turns out there is an aftermarket adaptor that brings the wheel forward. I'm tempted to try it.

Let me know how you get on and good luck.

Nice one!
That's good to know, I didn't want to drive miles and miles only to find I don't fit. Would be my toy, so a small compromise is fine.

I'm 6 ft 2 in (1.88m in new money) with 33" inside leg. I went 180 miles to Exeter to drive a 2019 370Z anniversary in April on the first day they allowed the public in; I'd even put a holding deposit on it. My head was pinned to the roof, and no, I don't have curly hair. Yes it was doable but visibility was compromised, and at £27k, not something I was willing to put up with. I was gutted. I'd had a 350Z previously and was fine, I hadn't considered that it would be an issue.

Many tall drivers go for the Nismo editions because the seats are thinner and therefore a tad lower, or remove the seats and fit buckets.

I'd always advise people to actually sit in any potential purchase. Even if there is head clearance, you may find the seats dig into your thighs (this was an issue in the 350Z GT I had IMHO) or the A pillars massively reduce your view depending on where you position the seat back and forth as well as up and down (IF it is adjustable).
