It may seem risky, but would you approach a car with a body hanging out of it in the middle of the night? I wouldn't.
This was gonna be my response. I will leave the evo at work, ride with friends to/from the bar and my manager would find me hanging out the back seat..... never late for work I can tell you that.

I've slept in my car more times than I can count. Lowering brackets would definitely help, but it's not too uncomfortable. I'm about 5'11.

Ive slept in my Evo once.. And when i mean slept, i really mean passed out.. It was thanksgiving eve, and i was banged up by 5pm(starting drinkin with the guys from work). and stayed at the same bar until 9 when my friends showed up. Ended up making it till around 1am and going outside for a cig. Didnt feel o-so good, so i walked to my car, and sat in the drivers seat.. I took the keys and put them in the trunk... (if a cop were to walk up to me even if the keys were in the backseat they could still hit you with a DUI in jersey) ..

Now i also had gotten called into work for thanksgiving (its 2.5 times normal pay here) so i had left extra cloths in my trunk just IN CASE i passed out somewhere.. Well i awoke at 4am in an empty parking lot, with about 1000 missed calls and text messages freezing. I drove to my job, which is less then 500 feet away. and passed out in a bucket trucks bench seat(i work for a telephone company).. I was wide awake at 730 and started to head out to my first job.. I got dunkin donuts then out i went. About 4 or 5 blocks down the road i ended up pulling a 10k lb Bucket truck off to the side of the road and swung the door open and yacked right out the side... I had about 4 or 5 cars next to me asking if i was ok... What a great start to the holiday!!!

Well last month I went downt o English Racing for a few days and was staying with a friend. One night I decided to go to Portland OR and hang out with a friend that I have not seen for a few years. Well long story short, we got **** faced and both slept in the evo! When we woke up in the morning I had a ****ing parking ticket. Like the cop couldn't have knocked on the window and asked for me to move the car. But then my luck the second that I started the car he would have gave me a DUI. So prob better that it worked out the way it did!

Hell I used to get all boozed up change into my uniform then fall asleep in my car until 7 am when my boss (who was my girlfriends sister at the time) wake me up for work. Those days were awesome.

I have slept in the front seat, barely reclined on the way home from auto-x events with four tires on the back seat. It is not too comfortable but a few hours is better than nothing.

I bought my evo Georgia. I flew down and drove it home to upstate ny >1000 miles.
I had to stop somewhere in Va. to take a nap... I am 6'1" and i slept scrunched up in the back seat... for about 4 hours... I think i felt worse when i woke up then when i fell asleep! My knees were so sore from being scrunched...
