Question Driver Interior Room: Crossfire vs 350Z

I'm a new to the forum & I've been reading through the great threads. I saw a post by Toolman, which quotes the April 2005 Annual Auto issue of Consumer Reports, stating in part the following:

"It competes with the Nissan 350Z and Audi TT... The interior is cramped, and visibility is poor."

I'm a large male, so I'd greatly appreciate feedback from (larger?) folks who've driven both the Crossfire & 350Z.
How do they compare in driver shoulder room, hip room & distance to steering wheel?

Thank you!

I'm 6"1" and 190 lbs and fit fine. Of course I have a roadster (more head room).

Regardless of my size though, it would be great to see room comparisons from people who've driven both.

They are about the same as I have driven Nissans 350/370.... I would give more room to the Z, but seat comfort to the XF... I like the looks of the Z, and even thought about buying one once upon a time...and.... I got over it....

I'm 6' and 200. I am pretty comfy in my SRT, I move the seat base ahead slightly which allows me to get a little extra recline on the seat back and I fit inside the bolsters pretty well. My only complaint is the lack of a left footrest.

I appreciate your feedback!
Are you referring to more overall cabin room in the Z &/or more specifically shoulder/hip room in the XF?
