I'm 6'-1' and I've already cut down my seat cushion so I sit at a more comfortable level and can see out my rear view mirror.
Teenhulk, my 16 year old son is now 6'-3" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Just in the last month he's grown 1/2". (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) If he grows much more he'll have to rethink his 914 project, maybe lower the drivers floor in the seating area. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) When do you think someone is too tall for a 914? |

In 1977, I was not to big to fit into my 914. 40 years later, I'm still not to big to fit, nor am I too friggin' old 6 ft give or take ,the 914 is very roomy compared to the 911's and 356's I have been in,the 356 is rather cramped IMO,as with the 944 you kinda fall into them,my smaller steering wheel helps with getting my legs in. My son got tall relatively late in his teens and is now same height as me ,his mother (RIP) was tall also. |
