6'3" here. I find this actually to be one of the most comfortable cars i've ever owned. This includes my old Focus ST with Recaros.

That being said i would also urge you guys to remember to adjust your steering wheel. Remember it also telescopes. I find a lot of people forget you can move the wheel closer or farther away from you and that can change seating position a lot.
I knew this, but it hadn’t even crossed my mind. Nice tip!

Many people are like, “Dude, you can’t be that fat to sit inside the Supra.”

They would be wrong: I have an e50 custom tune with a catless DP just to make stock numbers given the drag I put on the car.
True story: today I was at a light with my wife in the passenger seat, and she’s bigger than I am, anyway, a teenager in his BRZ calls me out. The light turns and we got smoked. We’re both going on a diet, effective immediately!

More like 850. I should mention that I had a full tank of gas— that extra weight made the difference?

That F'n head rest is going to be bent backward so I can sit normal, the half fetal seating position is not working for me. Everything else about the car is great, even near perfect.

I can attest to the fact that if you take the bar out the car doesn't know any difference. But on the other hand you greatly notice a worth wile difference in comfort I'm 6'4 and also like the more laid back seat position. And the removal of it does make it a totally different

I'm 6'3" and recently installed the cusco, but mainly to get rid if some of the ridiculous internal creaking! (Still get a little from the panels)

It does give you more clearance, but only a little.

For the record, installation of the cusco is a right pig if you are the wrong side of 40 and more used to comfort eating and a desk job as opposed to the generally younger, more flexible youtubers! ?
