I guess that is why the Evo feels huge inside.

It's interesting how the normal lancer didn't make the list as the interior is pretty much the same.

i am 6'3.5" and i agree. WRX/STI has no leg room, G35's nice but still not as much leg room as the evo.

6'1" fit perfect. They must hate the Boxter, they put it worst for short drivers and worst for tall. Who fits in that car then?????

I'm 6'2 s2000 does fit me like, and i don't like the way I sat in the last model mustang. My brother's integra is digustingly uncomfortable. My BMW 328 fit me very well.

A side note, one of my coworkers was 6'6 500lb and be barely fit in the driver's seat of a suburban with the front seat all the way back.

I love the seating position and feel of the S2000, very sporty cockpit feel. The Evo sometimes I feel like I'm driving a SUV because it's so big, seats are upright and tall, and has so much room.
