Boaz MacPhereson posted:I've been looking at Miatas on and off for quite a while. I'm about 6'1" 180-ish, so I've been curious as to if I'd fit. I know a lot depends on leg length vs. torso length, but I've never had a chance to sit in an NB(which I like more than the As and Cs). I too have been looking into getting a miata but am worried about whether I'll fit comfortably in it (6'2" 175lbs 34"inseam). I don't think a short test drive would be enough to tell how good of a fit the car is so I was thinking of renting one for a couple of days. There's a company on the LA craigslist adverting a couple of "rent-to-own" miatas. http://losangeles.craigslist.org/wst/car/446527802.html http://losangeles.craigslist.org/wst/car/445557212.html The cars are a ripoff but according to their website, they do daily rentals. I realize that it's "possible" for people taller than me to fit in a miata from what I've read on the internet, but I don't want to just "fit", I want to be comfortable. This car would be either a daily or semi-daily driver for me so comfort is somewhat important. If the car does turn out to be almost a good fit but with a lack of headroom, how much would some seat foam removal help? Also, if it does turn out to be a poor fit, what are some good alternatives with similar qualities to a miata but with more room? My budget maxes out in the 10K range but if a miata works out for me I'd probably only want to spend no more than 5K since there's so many nice NAs out there.

), but I only had the thickness of my hand's worth of headroom.
