I just got back from checking out a 5th Gen at the local dealer (I saw it as I drove by and had to stop). IMHO I think it's a good looking car except for the 20 in Dubs, but other than that I like it.

Sitting in the car with the stock seats there is not enough clearance for me with a helmet and get the proper seating position. Note I have a long mid section and short arms and legs. I'm 6 ft with a 30 in in-seem.

It was a V6 car with 20 in wheels, 245's on the front and 275's on the rear. The rear fender lip is already rolled and there appears to be ample clearance to go wider on the rear tires depending how much track change there is with bump movement.

The front is another story. If one keeps the 20 in dubs any wider wheel will interfere with the spring perch on the strut. Maybe if a more reasonable 18 inch wheel was used one could go wider, but I don't know if an 18 wheel will clear the 14 inch brembo's on the V8 model.

I'm also 6' with a 30" inseam. In my 4th gen I too had to use a race seat mounted almost to the floor in order to be able to reach the wheel with my helmet on (and not heavily rub the roof). Sad to hear the 5th gens may still be that way. Is the headroom any better at all?

I sat in a non-sunroof 2SS/RS and it seemed to have plenty of room. I didn't pay attention to whether my helmet would hit, though. I'm 5'11" with a 30" inseam.
