    Previous models like the Z3 are constrained by the rear wheel house in terms of how far back you can push the seat. Some clever souls locally remove the carpet padding to gain a bit more room. The marketing guys are clever. The guy shown in the pic is likely about 5'2"...lol.
    Thanks for posting the pics!

    I've sat in the current model Miata at the Pittsburgh car show and found it very comfortable, I'm 6 foot. The car with the most leg room by far that I've ever sat in was the Honda CRX. And like the Miata it had no back seat and was able to make use of all of the cabin.

    This third-generation car, which debuts in early March at the Geneva motor show, will draw power from a new 2.0-liter inline four-cylinder, up from a 1.8-liter engine in the Miata today. The bigger engine will turn out about 20 more horses as well, reaching upward of 160 hp. The torque climbs to about 140 lb-ft

    I owned a 2000 Miata SE 6-speed. Bought it new for spring driving in the Boston area.
    It was a fun car and I fit very well in it. I am, of course, 5'3" tall.
    That car handled very well and you could row through the gears quickly from a dead stop. The downside to it was that there were no legs on it after 80MPH.
