Doug, I was wondering what your height/build was for purposes of getting in and out? What are your thoughts on these. I think it would be cool if other owners would do the same to give an idea. I am 6'1" medium/thin build, and want an idea on fitting inside the car. Thanks, and congrats on driving your new Spyder. It's that much fun huh? lol.
Hey Jake! I'm about 5-11 and 175 lbs. Slight middle aged paunch;) I'm still pretty flexible so I usually just climb in without opening the door. Same on exit. Really makes people laugh when you stand up and walk out of your car!
LOL....
Doug, can you post a picture. I would like to see your car.
Sorry for taking so long to post pics up. I had a photoshoot a month ago in an Historic Village/County park and I'm still waiting to get the shots from the Photographer. I should have something by next week. I'll post them up as soon as I get them!
On another note....more issues.....
I have the wide five wheels with four wheel disks from CB Performance. Last week I started to hear a "clunk" every time I hit a bump. When I got home I found I could grab the passenger rear wheel at 9 and 3 o'clock and move the tire 1" back and forth! I thought it was a bad wheel bearing but it turned out to be that the cast iron core separated from teh aluminum outer casting!
Rick at CB immediately and with no question sent me a new hub assembly. I sent the separated one back and Rick is having it analyzed to see what's happening.
