I'm 5'10", 160#'s and I feel a little loose side to side in my 545i (sport package). I ordered new foam, but haven't installed it yet. The previous owner was HEAVY set and pushed down on the bolster to get out. I'm referring to the back bolster, not the thigh bolsters. The foam was cheap, but I've yet to remove the leather skins to get to it. I also got a little gun-shy when the seat air bag recall came out.

I do feel right at home in my 95' M3. Much more comfortable seat too. It's the lux package.

6'1" and I fit really comfortably in my 5. Funny thing is I love the 3 series coupe, eventhough I have to ask my wife if I look too big in it...she says no.
If I were a little smaller I'd probably be driving one of those....or an M3!

5'10" and I dont like the size of an 3 series. I feel crampped inside a 3. The 5 is perfect size.
