It's not just your height that matters. It's your weight.

6'1" and i sit very upright and tight to the wheel, fit fine w/o helmet. with helmet i have to do what i would call the gangsta lean, but what most would see as about a normal position. i have the sunroof

At 6', I have major issues fitting in, but I dont care. I have a sunroof, but the problem is I am long through the torso. If I had a telescoping wheel, it would be ok, but as it is, I have about 2 mm clearance with the roof.

The sunroof version makes no sense to me unless you are short and do not have and never intend to have any friends and acquaintences of more than average height. Without the sunroof the headroom is adequate for most.
