I'm 6'3" and I fit fine. Not sure how comfortable it would be with a helmet on though. My biggest problem is my fat *** which gets squashed a bit by the raised edges on the stock seats.

6' 3" here, fit ok. A buddy of mine who is 6' 5" 300lbs fit in the passenger side.
With both of us in the car I had to avoid shopping plazas cause of speed bumps.

6'3" in an 86 GXL (sunroof).. my head is touching/brushing the roof even with the seat leaned back, but I don't find it uncomfortable at all. With a helmet on, my head must be tilted noticably to the side, but I can get around the autocross course just fine, and it's rarely for more than a few minutes at a stretch (the time on the course + a little time with the helmet on waiting my turn to get on the course).. I'd have to take out some seat padding or switch to another seat if I were to start doing a lot of open track days.
I find that the seats get uncomfortable in my lower back if I have the rear shocks are set to the soft end of the range (koni sport shocks).. I'm not sure why a firmer ride out back makes my back feel better..

I got you all beat, I am 6'7" and I fit, but I have the smallest steering wheel possible to fit my knees in, and I am also going to mount my racing seat right to the floor and asfar back as possible to gain a little extra room

6'4" Tall. Fit fine one the street. But with a helmet on the track, things start to suck. My Recaro seats are mounted pretty much at the same height as the stock seats so there isnt much I can do. I just put the seat forward and lean the backrest back on the track. Heel ant toe shifing is tougher for me than others too.
