MX-3.com

a precidia is a small car indeed, im 5"11 and dont find it that small at all....its perfect....the back tho is pretty tiny and Im glad im the driver of my own car and never have to sit in the back....

But if thats the smallest car youve ever been in....try sittin in a smart car...i feel so uncomfortable in those things!

screw that! the mx-3 is big!! i am 6-1 and i fit in nice my buddy is 6-7 and he can get in fine to. My wifes car is smaller then mine she has a NX1600 and dont get me started on the miata that car is SMALL!!!! but yet me and my buddy can get in the miata but it looks funny to see are heads stick up higher then the window.

P.S. if your talking about the back seat thats a total different story =)

6'2" fit fine perfect size for me! backseat, thats another question but it is still better than my friends '01 camaro!

i'll beat you one day...i swear i will lol

6ft even, and never have a problem with it at all. But I must admit, I do feel "pimpish" when I cock the seat back to get in a comfortable,("sweet spot") driving position

im 6'1, and i actually fit quite well in mine. i do agree tho, the wheel needs to be .5 - 1" higher.... but right now its jus easier to use my thighs to steer when the case need be. however.... ive had 4 people my hieght in my car..... the 2 in the back got pissed, id hit a bump, and their heads would smash off the roof.....

6'6" and 260#. Getting in is the hardest thing due to the low steering wheel.
All I have to do is see a gas station when driving by in my full size V8 pickup and remind me why the smaller ( free ) car is fine. Only thing the truck does not pass is a gas pump!

Im 6'1" and have tons of room to spare in my 95 mx3, cept in the back seat obviously, most of my friends have to use both back seats to be comfortable. Personally ive never sat back there.

As I mentioned earlier, I am tall in the torso and short in the legs and I can't sit upright in this (and many other cars).

Do all of you guys who have no issues sit reclined in a suburban pimp position?

My ideal preferred seat back angle would be between the fully upright position and the first recline detent.

I guess I also find it odd that people think of the seats as mounted low. They seem high to me and I was wondering if there was any way to lower them.

So, I just joined, and by searching, I've found this old thread, rather than starting a new one, I thought I'd just get some thoughts..

I'm 6'4" and thinking of buying one (92 MX-3 GS) tonight, I typically recline my seats in every car I'm in, I've had a 93 323, a 94 Protege, and my current ride, a 99 Impreza wagon.

Any concerns about me fitting in the vehicle? By the way, I'm also 270lb. I don't appear too large, I look like Will Ferrel not Chris Farley! I'm getting really exited, but don't want to be let down! Replys would be really appreciated - although from the earlier posts, it sounds like I'll probably be fine.. just thinking about it a bit...

EDIT - I just realized that this thread is 3 pages long. I'm not used to the navigation on this forum yet I guess! - I see that there was a 6'6 240lb'er and it was fine for him, so I'm certain I'll be good!
Thanks!!!
