Default Tallest crossfire srt owner

Just purchased xfireblake srt6,I cant say enough how great a guy this is and pictures and words do not do this car justice.Being 6'6, I think thats the record for a srt,but also I could be wrong the coupe feel like it has more legroom than my roadster did.

I'm 6'4" and know I'm a little taller than Rudy. Not by much, but definitely taller...........maybe a little lighter too. lol. Kim says you're the tallest SRT owner, so I'll take her word for it.

6'5" is the tallest I remember. I've always thought the roadster had the best head room. I'm pretty sure the seats are bolted in exactly the same place as the coupes, so I'm guessing the leg room should be the same.

Oh, yeah-the roadster has ~ 1.5" - 2" more headroom.

Max forgot to add "with the top up".
Unlimited with the top down, except for power lines and overpasses.

I'm 6'-1" and somewhat long legged. I can feel my hair slightly touching the roof of the coupe but the roadster fits me just fine.

I'd never drive this car if I was anywhere north of 6'1". Few of my friends are that height and have driven the car and it's pretty much the limit of sitting more or less comfortably without your feet hitting the dash. I'm 5'9" and about 160lbs and the car is perfect size, actually I wish there was a bit more room behind the seat so I can lean it back more as it's always a compromise between having the seat back more for more leg room but sitting too straight up. It should be noted that people are of different proportions, black people have longer legs/arms in general for any given height. Weights is another big factor, somebody who is 6'1 and 220lbs (not that fat) will have a much harder time fitting it than somebody who is 6'1 and 180lbs.

Honestly its a very comfortable car for me being 6'6 230 lbs,heres a good example M.Jordan is the same height and I know his arms and legs are much longer than mine.Thats why people are shocked when I say I drive a crossfire,same legroom as my subaru svx .

If you want more legroom, swap your knee bolster with one out of a manual. At least an inch extra of legroom without disfiguring the car in any way.

I am 190 cm tall. 6 2" ? take away the knee bolster on driver side and the driver side gets much better compared to the passenger side. Still, the passenger side is still soo tiny. I only have my gf there anyhow and she is 172 cm tall. So no big problem.

I would give just about anything to be taller than 5'6", but I am thankful that it allows me to comfortably fit in a XF or a coach airline seat. Still, I'd settle for gaining 2-3" in a couple places and losing 20 years.

We are talking about leg room here. You could buy a Porsche to make up for the shortcomings! lol
