I got to sit in the Z today here in Phoenix. I didn't have any problem with forward visibility in the Z and I am only 5'6. The height adjustment is only for the front portion of the seat and as far as I could tell it doesn't completely move up and down like in some luxury cars.

I didn't close the door, so I couldn't really tell you the outward vision from the driver side, but I don't foresee it being a problem.

Actually I think the view out of the Z is better than the view out of my Stealth, so I wouldn't worry about it too much

As for the rest of the car...It looked GREAT in person. The silverstone was very metallic and was lighter than most of the pictures I had seen. The rear definitely doesn't look as big as it does in pictures either. Everyone knows the nav door is flimsy so you know my comment on that. The door handles seemed very solid and sturdy also, although others have complained about it.
The interior was nice in my opinion. Not luxurious (never expected it to be) but I would say much better than average.

As everyone else has said the car does look bigger in person and the fender flares are much more noticeable in the rear.

The engine note wasn't as loud as I had thought it would be, even when reved, but nonetheless...nothing to complain about.

I didn't really look over everything because I was too excited, so you can go on goofyZ and Z_types comments on the more detailed issues.

All in all I was very IMPRESSED, and now I am even more anxious than ever to get my car

 

Thanks. I'm 5'6" too and glad to hear this.

 

and i thought i was short at 5'10 1/2

I still count the half hee hee.

did you know that Tom Cruise is 5'6 i met him in real life he bought a house that my moms friend decorated. OF Course i had to help deliever the statues.

I was like dammmnnn. They can make you look alot talker in movies.

 

Never heard of 5'10 1/2 being considered short....

Hell if I was 5'8-5'9 I woulda been happier

Ya I've heard Cruise is pretty short. Stallone is too.

 

The average male American mens height is 5 foot - 10 inches tall. Which I find hard to believe, because that's TALL to me.

 

I agree. Most of my friends are around 5'10 give or take an inch. The people I know over 6' seem like giants.

I'm just happy I'll fit nicely in my new Z

 

Giants? LOL.....this discussion is kinda interesting to me? I guess I never gave it much thought...I'm 6'3" and always thought I was about normal....never thought of myself as tall anyway.


to me tall would be 6'7"+ like the NBA players.....


huh....thats funny to me.
