I'm 6'2" 200 lbs and fit nicely in my coupe.
I test drove some convertibles around the time I bought the coupe (about 2 years ago). I felt like I didn't have enough headroom in the convertibles when the top was up.

Well Doc, it's all of that "low car gettin' in and out" kind of thing. It was starting to get hard on my knees. So I said to myself "self, somethings got to go". The Crossfire or the fat, I'm keeping my Crossfire, so that was that. Started a 1000 calorie a day regimen in January and have lost almost 35 pounds since.

Now getting in and out is a lot easier, and I still have my baby.
