Drivers area too small??
Seriously looking at the IS350, but I am concerned about the driver's seat area size. I drive roughly 40k miles a year for work. I am 6'0" and about 210lbs. I love the looks of this, but want to make sure it's comfortable given the amount I am on the highway. The ES just doesnt do it for me.
Two questions:
1. Does the drivers cockpit area feel too snug for the type of driving I'll be doing?
2. What kind of highway mpg do you get with your RWD? I have seen as low as 22 and as high as 30.

I'm 6'4" and tried a few IS cars. They are way too small.
Oddly enough, I have plenty of room in my SC. I did enjoy my son's LS430. That was nice!!
Just don't get one of the "mid-size" trucks like the LX series or the Tundra. Also way too tight in the cabin, IMO.

I'm 6'0, 220lbs and I drive about 30,000 km/per year. I find it to be comfortable, but I can understand finding it to be too tight. I don't like bigger cars so this suits me fine.

I'm 5'11" 160lbs and I fit snug in the car... 210lbs, you might have to sit in the seat and see how comfortable it is. Best seats in the business, no other Luxury brand touching it

I’m 6’0” and 300 lbs. I find it to be very comfortable, but snug in a sporting way. Meaning, the seat holds me in place for spirited driving.
But I don’t rack up the highway miles like you. I would probably want more room to change positions on drives longer than 4 hours.

My only change I had to make was less man spreading. The center dash area limits how far to the right you can put your knee so it feels a little more cramped. The rest of the car is just fine.
