    I have way more than enough room up front, but I'm glad I don't have to sit in the back of my car. I'm 5'8" and drive with the seat all the way forward as well.

      Perfect.

        Lol.......I got freaky in da back seat of my e30, 3 weeks ago and I had plenty of room to get creative too. All I had to do was pull the front seats forward all the way.

        6ft, 235lbs perfect for me!

              My E30 fits me just fine. 6' ~215. I rarely have more than one passenger so I never get complaints, plus it keeps the weight down.

              I stopped getting down in cars a while ago, but I'd imagine it to be a little tough.

                haha...cool, yeah the Integra was also small once I sat in one again, like too small.
                The E30 just looks so damn kool, and one of the best front ends EVAR.
                It just felt like I'd have to hang a arm out the door to drive comfortably :)
                Or I'd look like Donkey Kong in a cart :D
                Also the E36 seems to be a high maintenance queen sometimes.
                And the E34 just doesnt have the same 'magic' as a E30.

                    I have had an 87 cab and now have a 89 cab, I have always thought the 89 is larger but never measured it to see..
                    I prefer the 89, I am 6'...180lbs

                      6'3" 215lbs. For me there could be alittle more room for my legs under the dash and around the console where it meets the dash. But nothing that it makes me complain.

                        compared to my e28 which i've been driving since winter, the e30 does feel a little smaller as far as headroom. E28's are quite roomy. Though, I think that when i get back in an e30 i will actually prefer the more intimate driving position.

                          I think theres a ton of space up front, considering the size of the car. Many larger newer cars Ive been in seemed more cramped for some reason, particularly in terms of the footwell. Headroom is abundant as well

                            I can't stand driving when everything is far away. I feel like I have better control when I'm closer to the wheel, pedals, etc...

                              I'm 6'4" and 235lbs and I fit nicely. I also drive a 74 2002tii with E21 Recarro seats and I fit well. I prefer my old school 81 Euro spec E12 528i, that car fits me perfect.
