Default 2015 Coupe interior space for a big guy

Hello guys

I am interested in buying a 2015 R Coupe, but i have a little problem. There aren't any cars like this at the dealers in my country, so i can see one live and test it. The problem is that i am 2m height and 120kg weight, and i don't know how narrow is the Coupe inside. Is there any FTYPE Coupe owner here with sizes closed to mine which can give me his opinion about interior space?

Many thanks

Welcome to the forum!

In all honesty I think you'll struggle a little at 6'6"...

I'd certainly not recommend buying without being able to sit in one

Good luck and keep us posted.

I've had several friends over 6' drive my coupe and they found it too tight. They would not be comfortable driving it daily.

Without having the opportunity to drive the F-Type, my sense is, as others have said above, that you'd likely find things rather confining. I'm about 1.82m and 82kg, and am OK with the fit. But, my son, at 1.9m and 89kg, is uncomfortable due to his leg length.

I'm a pretty big guy.... 6'4" and 215#, and I fit fine. But honestly you need to see for yourself as body proportions are different. The Sport Seats help quite a bit on the R. I was worried about my size, and the first time I sat in it I thought I was too big. But after driving it and playing with the seats I changed my mind. Very happy I did, and love the car. But really, with guys our size you HAVE to sit in it and see for yourself.
