New (and big) guy here...I'm considering purchasing a Z and it would be great to see some pics of the bigger owners in their cars (per the several suggestions already). Just trying to see if the owners actually have sufficient room inside or if they are limited to only one or two movements
I'm 6'2" 295, by the way...

As someone said, actual body fat percentage is a much better comparison than weight. I'm 5'11", 235, but my BF is about 13%, I can probably both run faster and lift more than most of the skinny guys in this thread. It's not bragging, it's just stating an example of how BF (and muscle mass) matters a whole hell of a lot more than absolute weight.

6'4", 270-ish. I had more room in the Z than I have in the Viper. Definitely more head room in the Z. I'm looking at a seat lowering kit for the Viper to get my head out of the dome.

I was trying to make the point that absolute weight is really not a good indicator of fatness, nor is BMI (body mass index, which is really weight divided by height) Body fat percentage is really the best way to determine obesity.

Anyways, back to the topic, I am perfectly comfortable in my G, at my height. I used the seat heigh lowering mod to lower the seat another 1.5 inches, but it wasn't necessary, just slightly more comfortable.

As for me being a girl, I'd be pretty scared of a 5'11", 235 lb girl, no matter what her body fat percentage was!
