I got to see on at the dealer today, but I forgot to check if the driver seat had height adjustment. When I was sitting in it, I had hard time seeing the front due to low slope of the windshield. I remembered that the Evo 8 didn't have height adjustible seat. Thanks.

Nope, it's not adjustable :(

That could be a big problem for some ppl.
FWIW, the STi does have height adjustment. I checked one out a couple weeks ago and remember clearly because I made a point of raising it while I was sitting behind the wheel and I remember liking the higher position for seeing the lower part of the hood.

How tall are you, out of interest?

I'm 5' 10" but I usually move the seat in the cars i've had in the past to the lowest position anyway.

I'm vertically challenged and I do just fine. Just drop the steering wheel all the way down and out of the way. :)

There is a slight blindspot where the right mirrors are if youre turning into corners and want to spot the corner while turning.. otherwise vision should be fine.

I'm 5'6" , definitely feel that I need 1" or 2" higher seat, thats why I ordered it from Japan.

<sillysarcasm> What about the rear driver seats? </sarcasm>

Don't take me seriously. I just think the title is kind of funny.

I'm around 5'7" but i got used to driving, however I'm paranoid about reversing. I stand up to reverse to make sure i can see and that is when i would like to have an automatic. There is also this way to raise it.

Shiet I'm 5'4" and I struggle to get a comfortable view over the hood and footing on the pedals. So I use a seat cushions and seating is a much better now. But I would still like to try to get it leveled up properly.
