From: We're all fine here now, thank you. How are you?
im 6'2" and now weigh in at a hefty 245lbs, and i fit in my vert seats fine. I'm long legged but have a short upper body, and my arms are a lil shorter than most(about an in). I cannot sit like i see most people nowadays, all laid back and to the side. I sit the second notch back from strait up and down, and with my seat moved up enough to where my legs are relaxed but not strait out, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

6'3 and in a stock S4 *had* to recline the seat so my head wouldn't hit the roof ( the car does have a sunroof ). Now I have a F1Spec Type 2 lowered as far as the brackets will let it and I have enough head room to use a helmet without it touching the roof.
I'm 6'1" at a whopping 145 lbs. My seat doesn't have to slide all the way back, my head comes no wher close to the ceiling, and the seats fit my width perfectly. I guess it was fate that an RX7 was always my dream car.
I'm 6'3 and i dont have any trouble at all, as long as the seat is back where its supposed to be and as long as i dont have to stand up inside the car i'm fine...........

Holy ****, we could have a killer FC basketball or volleyball team, there's some tall ************* in here.
I'm 6'3"-6'4", in there somewhere, about 185. I fit better in the FC than I do in my Audi or Expedition... Of course, I also have no rear bins right now.

I'm 6'3" and I don't get the look in my FC, but when my dad (6'0) and I get out of his Miata we do sometimes, and especially when we went around in his old '73 Triumph GT6 we got the look often, as it's even smaller than a Miata.

the steering wheel has tilt? where? that would help a ton, though i am comfortable now(6'3" BUT the steering wheel could use some adjustment..... i think that the people who have the problems with the headliner are probably the ones with the sunroof... me + 87 sport=PLENTY of room...

6'4, seat all the way back. if you have trouble with the steeringwheel hitting your legs get a smaller steering wheel. the stock ones are huge! anyways, my head clears fine btu sumtimes when i hit a harsh bump it puts my head thru the sunroof (which can hurt without a headliner.
