I come from a VW Passat...not a heavy car but heavy steering...so the G feels light...too light...have to get used to it.

Had 45PSI cold when the car was delivered. Knew something was wrong cause the car felt too jiggly...went down to 33 and then felt better...can't expect too smooth a ride with the S setup though.

But I'm a short guy and the car seems just made for us shrimps...how do you tall guys manage? Beginning to fit like a part of me after 4000k. love it!

funny you mention that... im only 5'7" and i keep the seat almost all the way back (though it did take me quite some time to find a comfortable position)
gave it to my mom to drive and she was surprised how far back i sit considering im not tall

 

I'm 6' and it's a very comfortable car for me. And I don't have the seat back all the way.

 

how far back do you lean the back of the seat?

personally i dont like the lean back position - after a while my neck starts to hurt. i keep the seat almost all the way back, with a slight lean so that my left shoulder is just by the B pillar. this way i can put my head back to the headrest, and still be able to drive.

 

I don't do the "sitting in a recliner" thing, never have. I have the seat bottom close enough that my legs have a comfortable bend in them, and are not hyper-extending to reach the pedals. And the seat back is certainly upright enough to use the headrest. Basically, I have it so that I am relatively comfortable (might move it back some on a long trip) but always in control and ready for "attack" -lol.

 

i tried moving the seat up so that my left foot can actually rest on the deadpedal, but it wasnt comfortable. my legs are more or less extended, but not stretched out. id say a nice 145 degree angle lol. in this position i can still put my right foot on both pedals, even though i just "toe" drive when driving around the city
