Outstanding replies, thank you so much everyone for helping out. Good to know that my size won't be an issue. First step is to sell my old car and then look into 350Zs near me, you can bet I will be back once I am closer with the purchase. I might have to have a look into coming along to one of your meets that are near me to get a better look around some cars and meet some of the people in the scene.

Hello everyone, I am thinking of purchasing an 350Z (Alongside some other cars) so thought it would be a good idea to join a forum dedicated to the car to do some research first. I am currently driving a Civic Type-R FN2 and I joined the Civinfo forums and found them to be a great help and a fantastic knowledge base for the car. I have hopes this will be the same here. I am not really sure what exact year or colour I am looking for yet but I expect I will have up to about 9k to play with after I sell my Civic. I have a couple of questions that maybe someone would be willing to help me with: 1) I am 6'3", this has been a problem for me before making me unable to drive cars such as the MX-5 and S2000. How would I fair in a 350Z? Anyone here that height, how is the ride? 2) Is there a doubledin conversion kit available for the 350Z? I have a doubledin unit that I just bought for my Civic that I would really like to take with me to the new car if possible. 3) I haven't actually been in one yet, simply admired from the outside I don't suppose there is anyone in the North/East London area that would let me come for a ride would they? Obviously I will test drive anything I buy but until then it might be nice to see what it is like. I would happily repay you with a drive in my highly modded civic (If such a thing was of interest to you). Anyway thanks for the great info I have learned already from the forum and I look forward to learning more!
