I'm 5' 11". We have a club member who must be at least 6' 4" and it doesn't
bother him either.

As for useful, my wife finds the one on her side incredibly handy for her travel
mug. Much better than putting in in the center cupholder when I had my '01. On
long trips I do like to keep a bottle of water there for myself, again, better
than putting it in the center.

Now if the center was more like the one in the S2000, so it could be used for
storage of small items like sunglasses or wallet, that would be handy.
