Default Can I fit comfortable

I'm 5 "10" 233 (have been lifting weights since age of 12 - I'm 17)

can I fit comfortably in 05 (or maybe 04) mustang??

Hard to say. 04 and 05 are very different cars. I'm 5'11 and about 180. I fit good with plenty of shoulder room. Depends on where you keep that weight big guy!!! LOL.

Best bet is to go sit in one! Should be plenty by you.

i am 5'10 also, 17 years, about 150lbs, also been lifing weight for a while...not the biggest guy definitly, but i am not small. i fit with a lot of room...this is a really big car actually

my uncle who is about 6 foot, 200lbs, fits in the car very well with room also

the driver and passanger have a lot of room....if you want to fit people in the back this is not the car for you though


i think that the best thing you could do is go to a dealership (with a parent so they take you serisouly) and ask to see the car, sit in it, drive it, etc

I'm 6 ft, 225 lbs here..., fit in the car just fine (feel like i'm writing for a personal ad or something) [&:]

The backseat is the one you'll need to worry about...

Dave,

05=no problem. Buy the car.

6'1", was 295, now down to 260. Totally comfortable fit. As a matter of fact, I recently raised the seat straight up about an inch or two higher than where I was, and still have about three or four inches of headroom......

That being said, don't plan on a passenger behind you!!

Go for it!!

Mike

Big Dave, I am 5'11 and 233 lbs and I have been lifting weights for years. Just do it. You'll fit fine. A good idea would be to go to a dealership and test drive one...

6ft 220lbs mostly muscle, abs aren't cut like they once were... I love it, most comfortable car I've driven... very easy to get relaxed and settle in behind the wheel. Take one for a test drive you'll see and feel what we're talking about.
