Agree'd...Im 6'4" and it is snug with the sunroof. Test drive a Sport and see how well you fit though.

I'm 6'-3" but all legs. I have plenty of head room (a good 3 to 4 inches maybe) but no sunroof. My seat's not lowered all the way nor is it slide back all the way. I keep the upper part of my seat tilted back a bit, too.

6'6" 225 and it's bit snug. My seat is back and reclined.... can't completely straighten legs and hairs on my head barely brush the headliner (I have sunroof). I expect this compromise with a sports car and use my truck for long trips/comfort. I can go about 2-3hrs b/f the RX gets a little uncomfortable.

The only way to know is to drive one. Even people of the same heigth have different torso and leg lengths. What might work for one might now work for another.
