i think the car is a perfect fit for a 5'7" or so person ... especially if you want to slightly recline your seat...

anyone 6' or above must be sitting straight up right or near vertical with the seat back...

6-2 and 200 lbs. It's comfortable, but I am glad I am not any bigger in any direction.

I'm sitting at 6'-5" 230 lbs and i'm kinda having a couple quirks with a couple things. Firstly when i'm sitting normally my head is against the ceiling of the car. Haha i slouch and its fine to drive. The most annoying is the fact i have to lean forward to see the red lights haha. I would smoke so many more cars if i could just see the light and not have to be in a weird sitting position! What's good about being kinda big is that i have no need for my sunvisor...i just sit up and it takes away the need for it completely! Lol. I wouldn't suggest this car to anyone over my height it would be way to uncomfortable to drive.

I have to do that too. In fact, my 4Runner is the same way.

6' and, well, I kinda have to sit up pretty straight to have my knees clear. On a good note, my posture is improving (I was a sloucher). So, has anyone averaged out the findings? My math sucks these days.

I am 5'3'' - lots of room for me!

As far as the average height - from everyone's stats, it's a little over 5'11''.

Wow, so many folks over 6'. I am 5'2.5". Fits great. Except if I am in passenger seat, I feel like I am sitting in a hole. Seat doesn't rise up. I need a pillow to sit on if husband is driving...which is seldom. :-P

I'm 6'2", and as Scooter said, I too have to sit pretty straight for my knees to clear the dash.
I use to drive my other cars with the seat "tilted" back, but on long trips my neck would get sore.
Driving the Crossfire has forced me to have a better driving posture, and I've driven it for over 12 hours (non-stop) without getting tired and with no neck pain.

Not 6' 5". I have no chance in my fathers SRT-6 Coupe for any type of long distance.
