6'4", I do not sit 100% straight up in the car, but it does not bother me. I drive the base with sport, I have been researching aftermarket seats or lowering the stock seats if I get them upgraded to leather.

Cannot help with that, 190 here (skinny like a twig), but tall.
Have you had a chance to sit in a Z yet? If not I recommend doing it, spend 5-10 minutes just messing with the seats and it will help.

I'm 6'6" about 215 and i just barely fit in the car. If I sit up straight and lean all the way back my head brushes the roof. But, it's still comfortable and very drivable.

I'm not tall 5'9, but I'm built like a turtle, 250lbs. 38 inch waist, I can feel the seat contours on my hips but it's still comfortable.

I'm 6'5" and about 240 lbs and I have the seat all the way back and reclined a bit. My head just clears the roof. If you're wide, the seats can get a bit tight. I took a 2200+mile roadtrip and the seats damn near crippled me by the time I got home. The side bolster really get uncomfortable on the thighs. I'm going to be looking for different seats in the near future.

i had a feeling that being wide with those side boulsters would cause a "crippling" effect but ive seen the bride lowmax seats that have super low cushions so im hoping those would take some pressure off the shoulder area.
