Default Average Height of IS-F Owners

I've been a lurking for a while and I'm in the market for an IS-F but I was just wondering what the average height of IS-F owners. I'm a bigger buy (6'3" and 230lbs) and just wanted to be sure I'd fit into one comfortable.

Might be a little tight for you...I am 5'9, 185 lbs and it feels sized about right for me. The seats are bolstered pretty aggressively - but I will let the larger folks comment.

I do still have a 33" waist...but I am rather thick up top so guess I may need to go sit in one.

I'm 6 foot 2 and 196 lbs. Fit nicely but if my pics were 1-2 inches longer is struggle.

If you have long legs that's where the issue will be. Can't hurt to sit in one to be sure.

Definitively sit in one - I was more concerned with seat width than headroom. If you are slim/athletic build, you should be good. I expect your seat will have to sit pretty far back, leaving almost no leg room for back seat passengers.

6' 3" 240lbs and it's a little tight but not bad at all. I also DD mine without a complaint.

I am 6'4" 210lbs and I am all legs and I have no problems other than the intial entry and exit...but I have that problem basically with most cars (not SUV's) but once I am in the car it is totally comfortable and I can't remember but I don't think I even have the seat all the way back. I have not done a long trip in it but have been out cruising around all day and had zero problems.

6'1 200lbs long legs and most of my weight is upper body and the car does feel small.. Hondas/toyotas have way more space.

The ISF feels pretty tight at first but you'll get used to it

I'm 5'8 180 and it fits me perfect. My buddy is 5'10 230 and he says the car fits him perfect as well. It all depends if you plan on someone sitting behind you. The car really wasnt designed for back seat passenger comfort.

I'm 6'5 hitting around 300lb, car fits like a condom, just like my s2000 did . My 4 and 6 year olds that sit behind me don't really complain to loud yet lol. If you love it enough it will fit, it must fit, there is no other way.

I'm 5' 9" and weigh around 120lbs.

I just hate getting in and always hitting/scratching the left side bolster!
