So I am intrested in selling my car because I cant stand hitting my head on it all of the time. I am 6'5" and was wondering if anyone knew any cars similar to the celica with better headroom. I looked at a 98 Eclipse.. and while it was quite a bit better - it still wasnt enough. I still want something that looks sporty... gets good gas milage.. and isnt too expensive.
What would you all recommend? Thanks, Todd -------------------- |

You'll have lots of head room with an eclipse...while standing on the side of the road waiting for the tow truck. The reliability is crap. Keep in mind on the 6th gens the Coupe has a slightly higher roof. Coulld also swap out to race seats. I am over 6" and with the seat all the way down I clear the roof by like maybe 2" in my liftback so I do feel your pain a bit.
