Extreme Height + E30 = ?

[Farbin Kaiber]

Who takes the award for "Tallest e30 Owner" ?

Anyone have any height related issues with owning an e30? Posted in interior, but I dont think many will look there. Hoping anyone may have some info. I'll tell ya what, It's a royal pain in the ass enjoying small sporty coupes and being this tall.

I'm 6'2" to 6'3" depending on who measures me and my E30 fit me great, a lot better than my E28 did in fact...

The E30 had sport seats however, and the E28 had the super springy comfort seats... Once I swapped my Recaros in I had around 2.5" more headroom... I think that's the answer for you freaks out there.

I try.

EDIT: BTW Blunt can verify for me. Once he's done I might let him stick his head above the desk and type out a message.

It's a good thing I didn't reply as above. I may have really brought out the Napoleon Bonaparte Syndrome in some of you...

My '85 325e vs. your '85 325e. Go!

i'm not super tall, maybe 5'10 or 11, but much of my height is in my trunk; most cars are a pain as i dont have to have the seat all the way back but my head is in the roof. I also hate the lean-back driving style; my seat is mostly upright.

my recaro sport with Wedge Engineering superlow bracket gives me about 2" of headroom.

[Farbin Kaiber]

I'm a mild lean-backer, as there is nowhere else for the upper 25%+ of my body to go otherwise.

I used to know a girl in HS with that name! :p

Never cared to verify it tho.

And on the basis of this thread, I am 5'11 and fit just fine with any sport seats.

I thouht I was going to see a e30 donk. When I opened this thread. Any on got pictures of an e30 with a lift kit riding on some 22's?

i'm 6'3" or 6'4" and e30's fit me like a glove. Sometimes I wish my seat would go back another click, but the recaro sports going in on wedge brackets will hopefully take care of that.
