Damn, I'm only 5'11" and I feel like I barely fit in that damn thing. I sit really close so that I can lean back more (give myself more clearance), and my hair (which is the opposite of "spikey") rubs on the ceiling around every turn.
My seat's as low as it goes, and I feel like I'm leaning back in a recliner; how is it that you 6'0"+ guys are fitting?
And yes, I bang my head getting out every time. Thank god it's so soft right there.

Ive never hit my head getting out, but I;; give everyone a set of laughs...
Before running the car by the dealership to get it traded in for the 07 we picked up, I went through a Gas Station Car Wash.. As I was getting the rear tires over the lil "bump stop" for your front tires for alighment in the wash, I gave it too much gas & jumped over it quickly, so I hit the brakes too hard & smashed my forehead against the lip of the headliner since the Sunroof cover was retracted.. Smooth.. I know..

People of the same height can fit differently because it's where you're tall that matters. Two people can be 6' 1", but one will have long legs and the other will be tall from the waist up—those are the ones who will bump their heads.

My husband is 6'3" and complains all the time.. passenger side is worse, he has to tilt the seat back until its almost against the backseat, drivers seat not as bad but he's close to the roof.
I cant imagine how you tall guys fit. He must have shorter legs and a taller body than most of you..
Me, I'm all legs
