Hey, I was able to easily squeeze into the old 70's era Lotus Europa, but it took
about 20 minutes of contortions to do so.

In the late 60's as a 2LT in Germany, I had a 59' Karmann Ghia which I pretended was
my Porsche. Lots of leg room in that thing. I once had to pick up a drunk about 60
miles from our post at about 2 am. I went to the barracks and got someone to ride
with me and off we went in the Karmann Ghia.

Picked the guy up from the German police station. Big guy, almost as tall as me and
very stocky. Made him ride in the back all the way home. The back of the KG was
probably comparable to the rear seat in your Porsche.

I had the opportunity to ride in a Europa. You described the experience
well! I rode in a DeLorean, too. Similar but slower than a modern Civic.


This discussion has saved me a bucket load of money. Now I'm no longer interested in
Porsche 911's, Porsche Boxsters or Caymans, BMW Z3's and Z4's, Honda S2000's, Mazda
M5's, Lotus's, or DeLoreans.

Might have to start looking at the Mercedes SLK class. I might give some serious
thought to this:

Oh, not the car, the bike in the background.

Or grow up.
