I'm 5' 11" and it feels good. I think any bigger tho, and the steering wheel could get uncomfortable.

Don't get me started on that POS wannabe sports car.

You're building a car that really will ONLY sell in America- where 6'+ males are a huge part of your market... and you make it impossible for anyone over 5'9 to be comfortable, and anyone over 6' to even step foot in the thing?

6' 3", 215lbs and I fit in it well. Getting in sometimes feels ackward due to getting my leg under the steering wheel, but that's not abnormal for me anyways with smaller cars.

On long trips, my butt sometimes gets sore and sometimes my back aches, but that's just a sign I should get up and walk around anyways.

6'3" 190 lbs. I thought it was going to be a major issue, but once i'm in it fits me great. Only thing is like mentioned, one any road trip over 60 miles i need to stretch badly when i get out. I have a bad back though, so that probably attributes to that issue.

I am 6'4" as well, and fit well enough. I have to sometimes stop on longer trips, but can easily do 2-3 hours at a time.
For you taller guys (or anyone) that may have the hard top, does it have anymore headroom than the soft top? My head sometimes gets a little cramped depending on how I sit in the seat, specifically the last collapsible bar. I would love a hard top for winter if it gives even an inch or so more head room.
