How tall are you?

Next weird pre-purchase question When test driving the G35 Coupe, I fiddled with the seats for a while, but didn't seem to be able to get the seat low enough to where my head wasn't touching the roof. I'm only 6'2" -- anybody else have similar issues?

You can mod the seat to go lower. I'm 6'4" and never had a problem with my head touching.

I'm 2'-9", plenty of room for me in there even when I'm doing pullups hanging from the top of the steering wheel with my SPED helmet on.

you should be able to tilt the lower seat downwards or upwards. Its one of the two button on the right side on the seat.

Members have complained about the seating in our coupes forever but it's about how you have the seat adjusted. Those with seat belts hitting them in the neck are sitting to far forward, must be sitting on top the steering wheel. I'm just 5'10" my seat sits at it's lowest point with the back tilted and adjusted so my size 13s touch the pedals....no issues ever with the exception of the seat belt retractor never working correctly.
