Im 6'1" and fit fine in the Z, even with a helmet. Thing is I constantly feel like I cant get comfortable, I wish the seat actually sat higher than what it does, or would let me raise the rear as well, not just the front. I put the seat up some in the front, and have the steering wheel almost all the way down, and when I hold the wheel with 1 arm it just doesnt feel right....

Just remember there is no limit to how long you can test drive. Take a sales person with you and stay out a hour or two and see if its still comfortable!! (If you plan on taking a long test drive make sure you take a sales person, you don't want them to call it in stolen!!)
Do you drive the Zs with Stilhuetos on?>?

I'm 6' and I agree with the person who said their legs feel cramped when wearing shows with thick soles. I wear a size 13 and it's hard to shift gears with shoes. So I always take my shoes off and drive barefoot (the one time I went to the track I made 2 runs; one with regular sports shoes on one w/o shoes just socks; I was .3 seconds faster w/o shoes.

Anyways I drive with the seat all the way back and was pretty comfortable even driving the car on an 8+ hr trip to Key West.

6'6" and fit just fine... actually that was part of the reason I bought it. I don't know anything about wearing a helmet in it though (or heels for that matter nuk nuk).

Lol. Maybe you could shrink your sig a bit to give yourself some more room.

Im 6' 200lbs. Seems perfect for me. I have to get used to the small rear window and the big blind spots.

I actually am able to use the knee pad on the side. Im loving it!
