Hard to tell, if a lot of it is beacause you have long legs, you'll be fine. Only way to really tell though is to find one for sale in your area and go check it out. Non-Sunroof models have more headroom.

I'm 6'4" myself. Not the most comfortable vehicle for my height. The legs are the biggest problem, my left leg gets between the arm rest on the door and the steering wheel. Solution: I took the panel of the driver side door off, including the arm rest. I also want to get a smaller steering wheel, I see Auto Zone has some cheapies for arond $40.

6'-3" and fit pretty good, but as mentioned earlier, the steering wheel rubs my knee if i'm slouching, and the e brake can get annoying too, but overall its very comfortable.

I'm 6' 2" and I fit just fine. I'm only 16 So I'll be growing and I can tell I'll have plenty of room to go. Right now I first push the seat all the way back, then tilt it back as far as it will go.
