I’m 6ft and couldn’t push the clutch in all the way with the seat back. I could see someone your size fitting just fine..

I’m calling bs on your S10 out running a v6 manual fiero... they can easily hit 60 in the 7 second range, and with the rear weight distribution they are a rocket off the line. They may not be the best sports car you can get, but with the v6 they were quick for their age.
