Are you sitting comfortably?

Wow. What a lot of moaning!
I am over 6"2 and it is easy:

1. Seat low as possible.
2. Fully tilted back base to support legs
3. Seat reasonably upright with only a slight lean (best for back)
4. Seat all the way back.
Steering wheel all the way in.

Super comfy. And share it with wife (5"8) who readjusts the seat up and forward each time. Really not an issue. I am blonde with blue eyes, so maybe it was made for the German sort after all....... (but am South African, just to be clear).

I now have an image of a blonde, blue eyed, german, south african, sat comfortably like this;

I agree with all this. Have tried various combinations and much better to have seat reclined less which means you can put it back further. My wife also adjusts up and forward and thinks the car is super comfy. She is from SA, maybe this car was made for you saffas(!)

hmmmmm..... Not sure what gave you that image from my description. But to be fair, that is pretty much what I looked like when I tried to drive an MX5 once.......
 
5' 11" here and electric seats and I'm finding it comfortable.

Like anything, you get used to the position the more you drive it ......... but first you have to drive it more!! :P :poke:
 
Driving home tonight I pulled out the thigh rest and tucked my left foot between the foot rest and the brake so my leg was completely straight. Very comfortable!
