Will I fit in an FC?

Hi, I'm 6'2 - 6'3ish at about 190 lbs and was wondering if I would be comfortable in an s4 FC coupe. I'm interested in getting an FC but am curious about reliability, cost, and whether or not I'd actually be comfortable in one. Thanks.

I'm about 6'1", 190ish pounds, and I fit fine. Isnt tons of room to strech the legs out on long trips, but I don't feel like a t-rex trying to get the window switches or shifter like in some sport coupes.

you could always reach out on the facebook groups and see if any local owners would let you sit in thier cars. That's really the best way to figure it out.

Non sunroof has several inches more headroom than sunroof car.

The sunroof tub spans from corner to corner of roof (not just the sunroof area).

I'm 6'2" and I need to open the sunroof on both of mine to fit with a helmet for decent suto-X seating position.

You will fit, but you will be better off buying a non-sunroof car (or doing a sunroof delete) and getting aftermarket seats if you want to drive with a helmet.

I'm 6'3, and fit with a helmet, though the helmet does hit the roof. I'm long of leg, and find legroom generous, but if more of your height is in your body and less your legs, your mileage may vary.
There is less legroom on the passenger/right side, so beware of that if looking at a RHD car.
