Hi all,
Is there anyone in the Tuscon Arizona area with a Gen 1 or 2 Type-65 that wouldn't mind showing someone the car for size comparison vs a Gen 3?
Potential customer is debating my Gen 3 vs a Gen 1 so was just trying to help him out.

Regards,
Dino

Just my usual caution after seeing this kind of post multiple times. What seats are used and how they're positioned makes a huge difference. So be sure to take that into account with any comparison. When I first sat in the Gen 3 Coupe prototype at Factory Five I was impressed with how much room it had. But it also had Kirkey Racing seats dead flat on the floor. I could barely see over the dash. For some that would be a good setup, but not for me. Unrecognizable compared to the Corbeau seats I ended up with in my build, along with the impression of how much room there is.

I totally understand and agree with you. Already told him he can swap seats for a better position for him or more room than my Sparcos.
