biggest fit owner?

I just got my new fit!!!

I love it. It's everything I wanted but I wonder if I am one of the largest fit owners around. I'm 6'4" at 350 and I'm pretty comfortable in my fit.

If there is anyone else out there who is a large person and have found the fit to fit them perfect let me know.

P.S.: You don't need to post weight I'd just like to know how tall you are..

I am not a big guy...5'10" 175 lbs., but I still wonder if people are surprised to see a grown man getting out of such a small car. Kudos to the Fit for being able to house a big dude like yourself. I was little apprehensive about showing my Dad my new car (He's 5'10"...240lbs.). I was afraid that he woud sit down in it and go "yikes this is tight...and small"...but it sounds like he will "fit" comfortably. Thanks for the info.

I don't feel so big now. I never was 'big', but felt a little tall.

6'1", 180lb

My Tiburon is almost too short for me. I couldn't get one with a sunroof, because it would have rubbed on my head.


One question for the big/tall guys: Is the center rear view mirror IN your line of sight, or above it? (I mean, can you see under it normally, or do you have to duck a little? I have to duck a little in my Tiburon to see under the rear view)

Yes I am Big...

I am 5'10" and 340lbs but this is the only small vehicle I was comfortable in !
Front and back seat, my mom wanted to drive so I got in the back.
Yes I get looks when I get In or Out of the Fit but I am used to it and always pass out my Dealers buisness card, Jeremy A. at P-cola Honda
The magic seats are always a big deal to show off.
Yes, The Fit is GO!!!

P.S.
Big People are harder to Kidnap.

There are a lot more big fit owners then I thought, thats awsome! The mirror is not an issue at all. Jacob, I went to show my dad my new fit and he makes me look small!! We squeezed in together and went for a ride he liked it but we were a little tight, you can imagine!

This is my favorite car i've ever owned, and I've been through a lot of cars big and small.

Thanks for the story. I'll enjoy showing my Dad the new car the next time I travel to see them. BTW...The Incredibles is great...good imagery.

Great thread!!!
