I've been wondering how tall are all the 6th gen owners out there? Obviously, Toyota did not build our cars for tall people but I'm curious how big someone can be and still fit comfortably into a Celica.
I'm 5' 7" and I don't have much room above MY head so I can only imagine how difficult it is for anyone taller. I know my brother is 5' 10" and he doesn't like riding in my car. The lack of headroom really doesn't bother me and I didn't buy my car for anyone else's comfort so I really don't care. Just wondering if this was an issue with anybody or are we all midgets?

Another thing about being a bit tall is that when I'm releasing the clutch if I were to bring my knee straight up it would hit the steering wheel just about where the friction point is. So right as I let the clutch out I'm sliding my foot off the side of the pedal and that makes it sometimes hard for me to release the clutch smoothly.
When I have some money to spend I want to look into the options for buying some different seats I think that would improve the situation a lot. -------------------- Bust a Deal; Face the Wheel.
