Question How big is...

Roughly how big is the driver's side space on an LX hatchback in comparison to say... an escort zx2? I've been looking into getting one of these but I'm a fairly tall guy and want to see if I'd have any trouble with one of these.
Thanks in advance for your help.

So the '87 to '93's are small, I take it?
Man, that sucks, I've always wanted a mustang LX hatchback. Though, I'm definitely good with a 94/95 as well.
would those be the largest ones? or are any of the newer/older ones roomier?

Well how big are you? I'm pretty sure you should sit in a fox before you rule it out.

well, if you've ever sat in an escort zx2, that is what I have right now and I fit in that, though just barely.

EDIT: Also, as for finding one nearby to try out, there are very few in my area, closest one on autotrader is about 150 miles away

You will probably fit in a Fox if you fit in that.

Again, how big are you? If you tell us how big you are, then others of your large girth can chime in and add input.
