That's why I went with the sedan. Extra headroom. My head rubbed the ceiling on the koup.
how about some aftermarket recaro seats? and yes, they will cost alot
adjust the seat, there is a lever on the left side. if this doesn't work just remove the seat :D
Yeah I'm 6'7 and fit in a Koup with a moonroof just fine with the seat lowered all the way, pushed all the way back, and reclined a bit...just like any other car I drive heh.

Head room was a deciding factor. I am 6 ft , (tall upper body) When I tested the Koup I had the seat all the way down and went over a train track a bit fast and hit my dang head.

But I must say I love my Sedan more every time I drive her.:rolleyes:
I'm torn between the Koup and the 5door. Haven't had a chance to sit in a 5 door yet to see if I like it better, dealer seems to always be out of stock when I stop by. No interest in the sedan.
I'm 6'6" and have plenty of head room in my five door SX with moon roof. In fact, this is one of the better features of the car. I would think if the seat is adjusted properly there should be no problem.
I'm 6 feet tall, and there's a lot of head room over me.
This thread has happened before and the same thing happens. OH HERPDERP IM THIS TALL AND I FIT SO YOU MUST BE SO STUPID YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO ADJUST A SEAT! People get their height from different parts of their body. I'm 6'5 but when I was looking at the Koup SX my head hit the ceiling with the seat lowered all the way, and leaned back. I fit in the EX but once the moonroof was added with the SX I lost that inch of headroom which caused me to go with the sedan SX instead.

Pretty sure this is what i will wind up doing .:rolleyes:
