Default 6 foot 2

I know this might sound silly but I have never driven a 911. That being said I am in the market for a new car and the 911 c4s cab is at the top of my list. I was just wondering the last time I drove a porsche it was my cousins boxster and I felt like a sardine. I am 6 fett 2 inches tall and 230 lbs. My simple question is will i be comfortable everyday in a new 911?

Thank you in advance for your help

I haven't driven a boxster, but i recently purschased an '05 cab and fit fine. Getting in and out is the most difficult with the top up in a tight parking place or garage, but well worth the trouble. Once in, it fits very comfortably, and plenty of head room. I drive mine everyday and love it!

I'm 6' 5" and weigh approx 238 pounds, and hence "Big Bob"(don't tell my wife - I'm supposed to be 225 pounds - I blame Christmas!).
I have a 996 Carrera 2, I have no problem doing 350 miles non stop (depends if I'm speeding) in it when visiting my father.
So you should be OK!
Regards Big Bob

You will fit fine. I am 6' 2" and have a C4 Cab. If you put a wind deflector in, you will feel a little cramped but the deflector is a must for highway speeds. It's pros far out weigh the negatives.
