Here's a poll for you guys: how well does your 4th gen's seating fit your height/size?

I'm 6'2" and I really need to do something about the driver's seat, because man it is an uncomfortable fit! It doesn't go back far enough to give my legs enough room, so they're scrunched up, but at the same time the steering wheel and dash controls are a little too far away! Don't mean to *****, cus otherwise it's a great car, but I'm curious about other people's thoughts and solutions. What have people found to be the best seat mods / replacements? Thanks yall!

im 6'5 and I think thats about the limit.

You can make 350z seats fit in there. They will ride a little lower.

I'm 6'2" and its one of the more comfortable cars I've driven. Worst was an '88 prelude, best would be my dad's huge '91 F250.

I am 6', 200lbs and the Maxima only gets uncomfortable for me when I have to drive over 1000 miles. My knees start to hurt from being bent, but I find that if I turn a little sideways I can stretch out my legs for a few min. To me it is less the seat and more of the narrow area where your knees touch the door and the center console. Around town though, I have always thought the Maxima to be a very comfortable car, much more so than my mom's 350Z roadster.

Im 6'3" and my opinion is that its pretty comfortable. However I wish the pedals were further back; i have long legs and I feel that im to far away from the steering wheel and the shifter in order to give my legs enough room.

With my STS 1st, 3rd and 5th are a little longer away than I would like when my feet are at a comfortable distance from the pedals.

I agree... I wish the steering wheel was a little closer, or adjustable. I have to put the seat all the way back or i'm sitting on two little points on my a$$ with knees in the air, but with the seat back i have to extend my arms quite a bit to reach the wheel lol. Telescoping steering wheel like on newer cars would be nice.. but can't do anything about it so... yeah
other than that.. I still think the maxima is comfortable.

I like how i fit into my max. i'm 6'0 but i'm more of a lightweight being at 160lb. It feels great for daily drving. But my back hurts on my 300 mile trip i do like once a month. I moved up from the "gangsta" seat to a more normal stance, so maybe this will make my back feel better.

I notice the same as other drivers.
For me to have my legs comfortable, the steering wheel is a bit too far away.

That will be a major priority for me whenever I get another car. My next car needs to have telescoping steering, or else the fixed position of the wheel needs to be a good position for me.

I drove my friend's BMW M Roadster Z3 convertible.
It didn't have telescoping steering -- (if it did, I couldn't find the adjustment) --. However, the wheel position was actually quite good and my legs were comfortable too.

One thing I like about BMWs is that they all seem to have an extendable section at the front of the seat for tall drivers -- to make their long legs more comfortable.

My next car will be one of the following -- as soon as I could afford it:

E39 5-series (the '97 to '04 style)
E46 3-series (the '00 to '05 style)
Z3 M-convertible. (don't like the Z4 looks inside or outside)

Finding a 540i that is not either silver or black is very difficult.
Same is true for the M Roadster.

This is exactly the same complaint I have, just stated more eloquently.
