Hello everyone,

I just returned from a local Chrysler dealer that had a Crossfire on the used car lot. I understand these things are real tight inside once you get over six feet tall. Dealer was closed, but I thought I would ask here first. Will I fit at all? Any tall drivers here? It sure looks small in there. Thanks for any help!

I'm 6'0" tall with long legs, and I don't have the seat all the way back. I do have it all the way down, with about 1 to 1-1/2 inches of headroom. It seems small inside at first, especially if you're used to a larger car, but it will grow on you. (pun). I like the feel inside, I don't feel crowded, but I'm sure it's a personal preference. I like the reach to all the controls, especially the 330 HP under my right foot. This car is absolutely a keeper for me.

 

I am 6'2" as well with size 14 shoes. I fit just fine.
When I first test drove an SRT6 coupe, I had driven a 2007 s2000 the night before. The Crossfire felt so much roomier.

Also, my father-in-law has a Corvette and my feet are so big that I often hit more than one pedal when going for the brake or the gas. I don't have that problem in the Crossfire.

 

I also believe you gain an inch or so with the roadster, because there is no headliner.

 

Are you bragging.

 

5' -11.5" tall here and there is about two inches of headroom above my head and seems to be ample leg room. You'll have an inch to spare (2.5/2=1.25")...

I say test drive it... It is alot like being in a small airplane...

I picked my XF up a week ago and I love it... Not letting go...

 

I'm 6'2" and it took me awhile to find the "sweet spot" in my '04 coupe. Just take alot of time working with the power seat adjuster and I'm sure you will find a position that's just right for you. It's snug, but I've spent more than 12 hours in my car during a trip, and never felt cramped or uncomfortable.
As it's been stated, the Roadsters do have a little more head room. (Even with the top up).

 

If you fit but it is tight in the knee area, there is a bolster there than can be broken off to gain some space.
It is there for crash ratings so beware.
The slk and crossfire in Europe does not have the bolster but it does here.
I guess it is for American ratings.
Best of luck.
I'm 5' 11" and fit easily and my bolster is still there.

 

I'm 6'3. It's not bad once you get the seat to where you need it to be. Long trips can be a bit uncomfortable. But, I didn't buy the car with seating in mind. I love my car!

 

Can you find the part number for the removed bolster dash panel?? I would love to get one!

yea i'm 6'1", have no problem, sometimes i hit my head when i get in if the door isn't opened all the way. depending on posture i can usually get 1 inch headroom, seat is not all the way back, but its lowered and angled as far back as possible.

 

I'm 6'4 and 225 lbs is there anyway I would fit? Lately I have been thinking of getting a xfire.

 

you will probably be close, depending on your seat position and your posture. if you slouch it will fit better, but if you wanna sit straight up, i doubt you can fit. my dad drove mine and he's 6'5", he couldn't really fit, and if i was that big i wouldn't want something that small.

 

You would probably have better luck in a roadster. Try them both on for size before you decide.

 

Definitely go test it before making up your mind...as you've seen above, plenty of the members of this community are in the same height range and can get in and out of the XF without issue.

I would also not that I had to develop what I call the "XF" twist to get in with ease, now I get in and out without even thinking about it. Good luck buddy.

 

I agree with +fireamx...the roadster seems to have just a little more room. Having owned both the coupe and roadster I can definitely say the roadster fits me a little better with more headroom. In fact that is one of the reasons I sold my coupe although it wasn't that bad.

 

i love the way the coupes look, these are some sweet cars i appreciate your guys input.
