Default Pedals Pedals Pedals!

The first thing that I noticed when I took the 3 for a test drive is that my foot automatically pressed on both pedals at the same time. I found it slightly odd but I paid it no mind. It took about 5 mins to adjust to it.

Eveyone mentions it on online reviews..for those of you that have had the car for a while, is it ever an issue? Hopefully it only takes a little while to adjust to it and then its not a problem anymore. Let me know what u think! Is there any way to fix it?

i feel that there is plenty of room to keep from stepping on gas/brake at the same time or brake/clutch at the same time. ive never had an issue with this.

I have heard this complaint before, but I wear size 12's and have no issue at all. In fact, I like that the pedals are placed as they are.I've even installed "pedals" w/a wider base on the throttle to bring it in closer. So easy...... Much easier to heel/toe that way.
