lol sorry i had to laugh.. now thats out of my system..

is the seat all the way back? the lever under the seat needs to be lifted up as you push back on the seat.. if your still too tall then try just reclining the seat.. it helps a little.. if your still too tall then cut a hole in the roof and stick your head out... unless you have a sunroof

it would greatly devalue the car if you start hacking away just to move the seat back a few more inches.. perhaps an EG isnt the car for you.. keep in mind they were designed by little japs that never excede 5'2" lol

I'm 6'0 and I fit pretty snug in my EG. How tall are you really?

He speaks the truth. I'm 6'-4" and with my Del Sol seats I've got a good 2-3" of headroom left in my EH3. Seat is all the way back.
