Can i fit

[pretty_ricky302]

Well im really interested in buy a 03' s2000. Only thing holding me back is my size. Alot of ppl tell me im to big and i would look funny in the car. Well im 6'3 210" hopefully adding a lil' bit more weight since im into fitness. My buddy has a s2000. I rode in the passenger seat once, i started to get pains in my back. I guess i can take that as a no fit. Any input? Any here my size or biggie.

You'll fit like a glove rick, check out past threads on "Will I be comfortable" 'r some such. The cockpit is, without a doubt, one'a the shinin' accomplishments of Mother Honda. It may not be tailored to one specific body type, but it fits most all'a us extemely well n' comfortably.
At 6'3", 210 you sure'z hell ain't the biggest pilot we got.
Check the old posts (N' don't let folks talk you oud'a it if it's somethin' that you really want.) An extended test drive with a competent sales person whut's been advised of your concerns is the only way'da fly rick.
Be well.

Thanks for the reply i guess i will continue to save for one. I seen a mod. where you can lower the seat or something. Gives a few more inches, imma have to check that out.

You're plannin' alterations that probably won't even be necessary.
Go get fitted for one.

[gomarlins3]

My suggestion would be to go sit in one and drive it. See how it feels and then make a decision.

I'm not a big guy.......about as wide as I am tall, and the more I drive this little buggy, the more comfortable it gets.
You should go try it out Pretty Ricky, chances are you'll find a sweet spot behind the wheel.

Are the AP2 the same size as the AP1 as far as seating, b/c where i live i neva seen a AP1 on the lot.

I looking for a 02'-03' white

[jagg]

they're so close, it doesn't matter.

[pretty_ricky302]

OK just sat in my friends 01' s2000. Man it feels good but the only problem is when i shut the door, my knees were touching the steering wheel and the door handle (part that you put ur hand in to push the door)

O ya this guy wants to sell his car but it has damage, said he hit something on the road, has a crack bumper rad. support bent back, needs rad. and fan.

This is his second s2000. I heard he sucks at driving.

my friend is 6-2 260lbs and drives mine all the time. i`m 5 "10 225lbs and have all kinds of room.

[pretty_ricky302]

Where u live let me test urs

[Dr. Jimbo]

Me - 6'1', 220lbs (tanks to Beck's), I fit fine. Mine is an '01. I tried an '07 and I noticed my rigt leg rubs te center were it comes down to meet te console. My '01 seems to ave a little more room (I could be allucinating).
Java, can I borrow some more "I-I's", I'm on my ome computer again.

Whud'jadoo wit' da las' batch Doc?
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHH
hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhhhhh
Think I could trade 'em for an adjustment?
Outside'a little bits'a shine ta make it look different, I never noticed any real difference between the AP1 n' AP2 interiors space-wize, but I've noted with Stewie, that all my interest lies in jus' jumpin' in, firin' 'er up n' gettin' to some twisties. I might could'a missed interior differences . . but I don' think so.
Be well.

Howdy,
6'2" 220 and I fit fine in both AP1 and AP2, no discernable difference.

[Swingle1]

6'2", 205. My buddy is 6'4" ~ 275. He has trouble getting in and out, but is comfortable once he settles in. I would say an AP2 loses a bit of pasenger leg room because of the "cubby holes" under the dash. It doesn't bother me that much, but my buddy whines a little. He also doesn't like the stereo flap cover to be in the down position (whether he drives or is a passenger).

[Scooter]

Yep, I can't drive with the stereo open 'cause it digs into my knee, which I habitually lean right with...

[TheSoundMan21]

6'0" Here 150lbs I fit great just have to have the stereo closed as well. Just dont buy a Mini I didnt have any headroom kept hitting my head on the ceiling when I hit a bump.

[Dr. Jimbo]

That hurts when you have a baseball cap on and that little button on top splits your skull open.

[SilverS2K422]

I have a friend who is 6'6 and who rides with me all the time, his head doesnt get close to the top, but has a lil leg room problem but hes 6'6 and ur 6'3 so i dont see an issue, im a big boy too and the only time i get uncomfortable is when i take long drives like 6 hours

I found that if you move the seat slightly forward (one click), then you can angle the back much more and my knees quit hitting anything...

[Clarko]

I'd like to inquire about this too. I'm 6' 4" and by what I've heard on other websites, space is tight. If I installed racing seats in could i get some more room out of it or no?

[RL1924]

Your probably out of luck lol.. Most seats will not gain you much room you should check them out before anything of course

As I understand it the AP2 is slightly wider due to a changed door design. At least that is what it says in the literature. Sounds like maybe a lot of your height is in your leggs. 6'3" isn't that big and I would think you should have plenty of room unless your leggs are very long for your height. I think the S handles hight better than girth.
