Default Re: How tall are you guys??

I'm 6'0" exactly. I'm fine I think, albeit I've only had it for 800 miles and then put it away until spring. I would not want to have a better fun car. I have an Avalanche too and I sit high in that. I've always sat in every seat of every car I own with my butt stuffed right to the back. I like to sit tall. I've had to adjust that a bit in my roadster and I find I can sit quite comfortably and see very well when I sit with what I call, "attitude". That said, I don't think it is possible to get a good "lean" from a Crossfire. You keep deploying the coffee cup holder with your right arm! Then again... why would you want to drive that way? The leg room is excellent, regardless of anything else!

I find that it corners so spectacularly that it is more important to get belted in nicely and keep enough room for your arms and hands to hang on and steer! Kidding.

My son is 6'4 and he's a hard fit. Although he says he likes it with the top down. At 6'1, if this is to be your daily driver, you'd better really like it. If this is for fun and adrenaline ... you won't find a better vehicle nor a better group of interested owners who are willing to help you along with your endeavouors and make your Crossfire ownership more fun than anything you've ever owned. I'd say if this car is not to your liking... find one that is and join the fun! You'll learn to get your butt forward a bit, lean back and relax soon enough!
