dang, 6'7"??? Are your legs comfortable, and most important, are your knees rubbing on the steering wheel while driving?

Rxdriftingaction

it can't really tell just by the tall. cuz some ppl got a long leg. some ppl got a long body.
it's just can't really tell.. want about go to check it out. then u will know. comfortable or not. just sit in there u will know.

I'm 6'3 and 205 lbs with the GT Package (motorized seats) and moonroof. Unless you have really "pooofy" hair, you can recline the seats into a comfortable "racing" position and not have any problem with head/leg room. Good luck!

Hey all.. I'm 8'10" and 416 lbs!!!

No, seriously..I'm 6'0", 205 lbs, size 11 shoes. No issues as far as fit and comfort are concerned.

Test drive it...then buy it!!!

I wish the steering wheel went up a little higher but more than not it's pretty good. Sometimes the paddle from the upshift on the steering wheel will catch my leg when it turns to extremes, but in normal driving it's a pretty comfortable car. Have you driven one yet?

I'm 6'5", 265lbs- I can fit just fine, while driving- Passenger is a bit of a challange.
No way would I try the back seat-Think they would need the JAWS of LIFE to get me out.!!

Recline into position yes, but anything approaching a comfortable (at least for me) and classic driving position, no.

If you have a long torso and don't want to drive the car while reclined rather severely, you will have to opt for a car without a sunroof, period.

my roomates 6'6", probably 220 and has no problem as a passenger. ive never let him drive the car, so i cant speak for that! my other is 5'10"/11" and regularly sits behind him, though not for long trips

I am 6'2" and 225 and I am comfortable in my 8. The seat bolsters prod me in the spare tire a bit but that just reminds me I could lose a couple pounds.

I'm 6'2" about 290 and have a GT with a sunroof. With seat bottomed out I have just enough headroom (short legs, long torso). The only problem I have is that over 6' the rearview mirror creates a significant blind spot, especially at 4 way stops, it almost totally blocks on the car on the right, but you learn to adjust for it and the car is worth making the adjustment, it really is a dream and there is lots more room than in a 350Z and don't even think of anything in BMW unless you want a constant bow in your neck.

I am 6'4" ~6'6" with cowboy boots :-) and can sit in the car just fine...maybe my hair will rub against the ceiling if I have the seat straight up, but who ever drive like that....other then grandma. ANd for a 6'4" driving that goes for any car...except maybe for a buick.

I also am very comfortable in the back seat when a front seat is pulled just halfway forward. Mazda did a very very nice job on this car.

That's interesting, it never occurred to me that the right-side blind spot from the mirror was due to my height, I just blamed it on bad design.

The one issue no one has taken into account is shoe size. With size 15's and at 6' tall (32" inseam), I'm pushing the seats in all cars back all the way or one stop before the end... However, I didn't have any major problems fitting in a GT 8 that I test drove. I just rubbed my head a little and bumped it on the "grab bar" in the passenger's seat. A sport package 8 should have plenty of room for you.
