    too tall???

    Whats up,

    I've just recently become interested in the VX. I'm 6'4 tall and wondering if my heighth would be an issue with this vehicle. Thanks in advance.

    I'm almost 6'3 and fit no problem.

    I think Maugan is 6'4 or 6'5 and he's never complained about height issues.

    You should fit perfectly.

    yeah I'm 6'5" with abnormally long legs. I can't fit in small cars like miatas or S2000s, not even the passenger side.

    But I have no problems in the VX, the only issue really is that the seat extender thingies really do nothing for me since my thighs don't rest on the seat

    Thanks for the input. That was my biggest concern and since the closest one for sale is about 200 miles away from me, I didn't want to get all the way to the dealer and find out that I couldn't fit in it.

    Unhappy

    My fiancee is 6 4 and cannot fit into the driver seat well enough to drive. I dont know why he cant and so many here can. He puts the seat all the way back, stretches forward to steer, his head at a permanent tilt against the roof and his knees getting far too close to the steering wheel. IF any of you tall ones can offer a solution it would be much appreciated. We have a weekend drive along the coast and I would love be a passenger for once.

    my head doesn't even come close to the roof.
    when using cruise control, my knees come up a bit... I do tilt the wheel up and down to get in and out.
