I'm 6'-1' and I've already cut down my seat cushion so I sit at a more comfortable level and can see out my rear view mirror.
Teenhulk, my 16 year old son is now 6'-3" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Just in the last month he's grown 1/2". (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) If he grows much more he'll have to rethink his 914 project, maybe lower the drivers floor in the seating area.

I am 6'4" + and have been comfy in my car since 1974. Do like the smaller momo.
Very surprised no one has mentioned the old trick of removing the seat cushion and putting in a thin foam pad for track driving. Not only provides extra head room to fit a helmet but also provides additional bolster support. My 6'4" 300+ lb ex NFL lineman son has driven the car. Not comfy but fits. |
