You'd probably fit in an NC... maybe not very comfortably, but you'd fit

Ummm... its a convertible.

I find myself switching from looking under/over the windshield depending on road angle, distance to stop light, sun location, etc. Its interesting with the top up and I'm only 5'10".

man... I'm 6'4 and fit fine in my ND and NA/NB is a crapshoot depending on aftermarket seat. Stock seat with foamectomy is comfy in NA/NB. NC I have height issues with the hard top but not the soft top. Plenty of space otherwise.

I fit fine the the race that has the kirky bolted to the sliders, I was refering to my wifes stock NA.

My best friend is your size and sat in my friends NA and it was a tight squeeze to say the least and that was the passenger side, he'd never fit into the driver side.

Yeah I bet he did. Since the outer edge is basically all coral reef there's basically the lagoon to explore on the island I was on.

It was cool. Mission was cool. Enjoyed the overall experience. Food choice was pretty much nothing though.
