buy the car and look around for some del sol seats. and swap it in. you'll be much happier then. alot of extra headroom.

I'm 5'10" with a 00 gsr. The moon roof certainly doesn't help any with the headroom, so an RS or a type-r will have a little more space . Comfortable depends on how you prefer sitting. I have to have the seat base a little too close for max comfort, to have the wheel be at a good position, for how far back I have to keep the seat back reclined. But it is far from uncomfortable. If you prefer sitting more upright, you might be a bit cramped without swapping out seats.

My only real objection, is my helmet is less than 0.5" from the ceiling, so on bumps or if I look left and slightly up, I will hit it. Oh well, a nice Recaro (or anything equivalent with a lower seat base) is on the list for later.

edit: I've also got 3 - 5" of spiked hair adding to my height, and I fit.

I'm 6'3" and I don't have a problem. My seat is leaned a little back so I guess that creates some more room. I have had problems with a helmet on though. I usually have to lean the seat way back in order to not be touching the ceiling.

i'm 6' 4" and it's not too bad.....pretty comfortable, knees sit up a little bit, but it's not that bad.

i've sat 4 hours straight and never felt anything horrible....just a little stiff

i got big feet too and there's plenty of pedal room FYI

I dont have any problems and i break the 6 foot mark. You do have to lean the seat a little and get used to it. My knees get kinda sore sometimes, and I wish I could put the seat back a little bit, but its still an ok drive.

I am 6'5" and with normal gsr seats i fit in there pretty good like everyone said you may have to lean the seat back a lil.... but i have del sol seats in my teg now and they sit like 4 inches lower than the gsr's give me so much more room i would highly recomend switching to the del sols i wouldnt trade em for the world... just need to have a lil added bolster suport to them when i have em restiched for extra support

my brother drove my teg, he's like 6' 2.5" and he was complaining because his head was touching the roof.. If you get a teg, make sure you get the del sol seats. It may be alright for a while, but before too long youll get annoyed by your head touchnig the roof.

i wouldn't worry about it man. I'm 6'4 and i really don't have a problem. Yea the seats all the way back, and reclined a bit but hey. I thought it'd be alot worse. Do the brides sit high or what? I need seats for my teg and i kinda wanted brides or recaros.
