6' 1" 188LBS here, no problem. BUT, if you don't want your vision through the windshield cut off at the top (limits view of stoplights when close, for example) then I SERIOUSLY recommend some lower seat rails.

I'm 6-4 200lbs. I just test drove one yesterday and I fit pretty good. Idk I remember driving vtec95's and being more cramped, who the hell knows lol.

I am 6'5 about 215 lbs and fit fine. It's not something I'd want to go cross country in but it's doable. The knee room to manipulate the clutch is my tough spot.
Passenger side floor pan is a lot more shallow and am hosed on that side, but that's relatively irrelevant if you own the car.

Funny thread even if it's a legitimate question. I'm 6ft 1in with long legs and it fits me perfectly. But get this, my cousin is about 5ft 10in and said he felt like he had no room (of course I didn't let him actually drive, just sit, because he's a maniac) so I guess it comes down to trying it out and seeing how you feel.

If you find that you have an abnormally long torso and very short legs that don't allow you to fit, you can always lower the seating stance with some nice bucket seats. I'm 6'1'' and some recaro pole position seats really lowered my seating position. felt a lot nicer to drive as well.

I'm 6' 190lbs and legs on the longer side. I also have backyard special low rails with oem cr seats pushed as far back as possible and the back reclined at a fairly neutral position. If I was even an inch taller I would think it would be a problem. As it sits, position to heel/toe is ideal, knees just barely clear. The steering wheel feels like a reach though, wish it would telescope or had an extender to bring the steering wheel closer to my body.

I'm 5'10 and with the stock seat, while I wasn't hitting the soft top, I still had to duck down to see if the light turned green etc. since the windshield frame is low. My main reason for switching to a bucket seat was to lower the seating position so it felt like I was sitting IN the car as opposed to on it.
