928 GTS and me? |
|
|
Have my mind aimed at buying a 928 GTS, but was wondering if
the idea should even be persued. I stand 6'5" tall. The questions;
Don't bother.
or,
Have a seat and see. It may just work.
TIA for any input.

It should work just fine, I stand 6'4" and am
quite happy in my 928s
It fits much better than the 914 I had ten
years ago.

How? I'm 6'1" and have trouble! Do you lean the seat way back or
have sport seats or something?

Well, I do lean back some, and I do not count
entering and exiting when I determine "comfort"
I have the regular (non electric) seats that came with it.
Perhaps the electric seats were a bit bulkier?

If it doesn't fit, send it over here.

These are the times I really like being 5'10" =) I fit comfortablly in the 911
as well as in vintage models like the 928.

The irony is that I fit in my other Porsches with room to spare.
911? No problem! 944? Gobs of head room - hell, I'm even okay with the
narrow thigh room under the steering wheel! But the 928, the largest
of the 3, that's the one giving me fits.

How odd, I sat in a '96 993 twin turbo awd and I couldn't stand
the lack of leg room, but I find my 928 fine. (not like a Lincoln, but ok)
