    Question Advice on getting into/out of an 818C...

    Hello all,

    I am seriously considering building an 818C...

    I had the opportunity to drop by FFR on a business trip to Boston last week to see if I fit (6'3", 235lb).

    First the good news: yes, I fit - and I love the car in person!

    Now the question: how do you guys get in/out of this car? It seems extremely difficult with the high slanted door sill; far more challenging than any other car I have ever ridden in.

    So, are there any tips/advise? Did I make a rookie mistake with my "drop my butt in and swing the legs" approach?

    All in all it looks to be a very fun ride/project, but I am concerned that getting into/out of this car will be impossible without opening the door fully - making parking in a tight garage problematic.

    Would love to hear from owners of the coupe... and is the 818S any easier?

    Thanks!
