I want to get 3rd gen 7, but I think that I am too big for one, people say if you are too big for the s2000, then you are too big for the rx-7.



I am 6, and I weight 220, will the fd3s be to small for me, or are there any big buys out there that own 3rd gens.?

I'm 250 and I fit fine and I'm 5'11". I have the touring model so it's tight in the headroom when I have a helmet on because I have the sunroof which lowers the roofline a little.



I think you'd be fine especially if you get a model without a sunroof.



The best way to find out is sit in one!

I'm 6ft. and 215lbs. I fit in good, a little snug, but I like that. As for me, I have a touring w/the moonroof and with a helmet on I have about an inch or 2.

I have friends that are shorter than 6' 220 lbs but have large legs and they commen about how the steering wheel digs into your thighs. And wouldn't get one for that reason. I'm 5'11 and 180lbs and the steering wheel is still a tight fit for me. Don't let this discourage you,i'd go sit one first.

Yeah that's true... I have two friend who are both 6'6". One can drive my car ok. They other has really long legs and it's really funny to see him in the car with his knees around the streering wheel. He can still drive it around the block though.

If you get an aftermarket steering wheel and an extended boss you won't have any problems with legs hitting. I am 6' and over 300lbs. If I can fit anyone can.
