I'm 6'6" and I'm comfy even with a helmet on. But don't take my word for it, go try one at the dealer.

Also, I am 175lbs so there may be more of a lateral fit issue if you are bigger.

I'm 6'3" 180 lbs. I fit in the Z very comfortably. I also felt cramped on the S2000. The best advice is to go to a dealer and sit in the Z and see how you like it.

I'm 6'4" 204 pounds. I fit FINE... (I actually don't have the seat back all the way and I don't have the gangsta lean going on either.

(I prefer to sit more upright and closer to the wheel for better control, but I do hvae plenty of room!)

Default 6'2

6'2" 250 pounds (think linebacker)

I fit fine in the Z. (I was shopping for a roadster)

Cars that were WAY to small (ie not feasible to own) were
Mazda Miata
Toyota MR2
BMW Z3


Cars that are too snug for comfort, but feasible were
S2000 (too narrow in shoulder)
Audi TT (too narrow in leg tunnel, stupid grab bar)

The BMW Z4 fits me OK, but to be comparable to a Z you would have to get the 3.0 which makes the Z4 much more expensive.

Definetely go sit in the Z, you will probbaly love it.

Only until they get OUT of the car and kick your ***.

hehehhehe

<just kidding, not threatening>

Seriously though, it can be PRICELESS to have some dork mouth off and then watch his face as I s-l-o-w-l-y climb out of my little car to tower over him. Amazing how fast a "tough-talker" can turn in to a "just kidding".

My friend who is 6'3" does that gangster lean. At least you can see their heads. Too many 5'9"ers like myself doing that. Makes it look like the car is driving itself.

Default 6'4"

I'm 6'5" 295. All the way back and some lean, its the only way I can drive a car that is not full sized. Haven't owned one that big since 1965.

My older brother is 6'11" and he fits, but I'm not sure if it's uncomfortable for him. Over extended periods of time I imagine his legs would become reasonably fatigued.

6'11" is not reasonable for a car of this size, I wouldn't even consider it.
