You still have an inch and a quarter at least... over 6'5" here. 1st time I test drove it a thought I was too tall. I went back and adjust the seat down and took it for a test drive. Better fit than my 69 vette but not as good as my 71 240z.

I never get anyone hating on the Z. Except for the occasional *** that doesn't like me getting in front of them. That wouldn't matter what car I'm driving.

Driving my Tacoma yesterday and got in front of an idiot leaving a huge gap in stop and go traffic. Had about 4 car lengths of a gap when I changed lanes. Thought he was going to blow a gasket the way his arms where flailing around, facial expressions and flipping me off. LOL Must of been a postal worker.

I would say that is about right. There is just enough room where my right knee doesnt touch the dash.
