Does it feel a little "closed in"?

What about the seat? Am I the only one who finds the drivers seat a bit uncomfortable? I'm 6' 180, and to me there's not enough lateral room. And no, I don't have a huge *** lol.

no lateral room problem here, actually i'd prefer a tighter side bolster support, i still slide around in high G turns

I'm 6'5, 215 with a sunroof and I fit comfortably.

My seat has to go all the way back and I am reclined quite a bit (since I hate being really close to the wheel)

I have brushed my hair on the headliner once or twice but on big deal there.

As for the seats, I think they're awesome.

Conclusion is that I do not feel "closed in" at all.

I think the side bolster(thanks I wasn't quite sure of the term) may be the problem. Instead of sitting flush on the seat, sometimes I end up on top of it, and it's uncomfortable

Don't you feel like you're riding a luge?
