I am 5'11 215lbs. and I sit quite comfortably in my Pcar.. Give it another chance.. Especially if it's not your daily driver !

Yeah, B, I have tried the M3, old and new, the leg and hip and shoulder and headroom, all conspiring against me. I test drove a Boxster S, a '95 air cooled Carrera, and an M5 over the Spring, the M5 was the only one I really felt comfortable in. Shame too, cause the guy who owns the local BMW shop lets me drive his E46 M3 and I really love it.

I'm 6'4" and about 290 wearin' 38 or 40 waist and 52 long sport coats. My choices are limited. Even when I shuck quite a few pounds (as I should do cause I ain't chasing down QB's anymore), I've still got that big-boned frame and I'm double-screwed cause I've got the long torso. I should ask some of the Wizards who modifies their seats in their rides. Years ago, Manute Bol (7'6") had his Alfa Spyder modified so he could drive it.
