I'm 6'3" and am very comfortable inside my '08 Honda Civic. Only had it for a year, but I absolutely love it. 30 mpg city/ 33 highway.

Thanks for all the info guys. I have a list of cars to "sit in" before I make a decision.

I was going to suggest the Cooper as well.

I am 6'2" and own a 2008 Hyundai Sonata, my buddy who is 6'4" fits in it very comfortably. Great car, good gas mileage, we got 32 mpg on a cross country trip and 234 horsepower keeps up the pace nicely. After owning one, I highly recommend them.

For long drives, 3 or more hours, I can't find a compact or standard size car that I am comfortable in. Anything with two doors is pretty much out for me, no matter what the distance. Granted I am every bit of 6'7'' and have a few knee problems to my credit. :-)

uh....Don't ask, Don't tell.....

20 years of wearing boots and NEVER heard ANYONE refer to them as "heels"...

:-)

Back on topic...

Only downside I have with recommending a Scooter (er, Cooper) is that for guys our size, you gotta be the Yoga Master to get in and out of that driver's seat and door.

6'4" here (barefoot...I don't wear heels). I have a Saturn Aura. I get about 27-28mpg, and have plenty of room for myself and the rugrats (or adults) in the back (even with the seat all the way back). Lots of head room, too.

Main suggestion that I have is rule out anything with a sunroof. When we got my car last year, that is what I found out. couldn't get anything with a sunroof. I even don't have enough headroom in the Trailblazer because of it.

My fiancee has an 08 Civic that I have quite a bit of headroom in. I am 6'1", but long in the torso. No sunroof - that takes up an extra 2" or so.

Major, I'm 6'10" and the best compact car for the money with plenty of head & leg room is the "Honda Element". Not the best looking car, but a great buy!:-)

Over 6'3 and I fit in my 5 series BMW just fine...that is about as small as I would go.

That Simpsons episode came to mind as soon as I read the thread!!!

6'5" I drive an '03 Civic hatchback and it has plenty of room. The wife drives an '08 Civic sedan (both Si) and I don't have a problem with legroom in either car, and in the '08 people of normal height (5'6") can fit without issue. Also, it doesn't seem like a big deal, and often I prefer electric seats (especially if heated), but manually adjusted seats always seem to give a bit more legroom.
