I'm 6'6,-.... most of it in the legs. Electrical seats all the way back is fine, except for that when I sit up straight - as one should - ...my head is firmly against the roof ( sunroof ). You could say that I can "wedge"myself between the seat and roof. Not very comfortable....

The other day I sat in GT2 seats in a Turbo - with sunroof -.... and that gave me an extra inch. Looked for seats liek that, but they cost the same as a small second hand car

Plus one for extenders for the seat. I am 6'4" tall with 34.5 inseam and with the extenders I cannot push the seat all the way back and still push the clutch in all the way. Great product for tall folks. The console eliminator kit was not really needed after installing the extenders but I really like the car with the console gone.
Size 14 feet and longer in the torso then leg length. My 6'6 inch brother found the car fit him very well with the extenders. His inseam is 36 with size 13 feet.
