How big are you, and is there a too big?

When I tell people I have a Mini many times I get the "How do you fit in a Mini?"

I'm 6'3", 235lbs and fit just fine with size 14 feet to boot.

6'4", 290 of your funny money pounds.

Constantly surprise people when I get out of the mini! There is a dude on MiniTorque in the UK who says he is 6'7" and fits.

I know an old school NAM member who's 6'8" and had an R53. He has a great story of a road rager getting out of his car to give him crap in a toll booth line... that was until he got out and told him to get back in his car. The tough guy wasn't so tough anymore and turned around.
