Default would really appreciate help with a coupe purchase

Hello,

I have been watching this site, looking for a low mileage (under 20K) automatic coupe, or srt coupe, for my wife. I am currently looking at a 2005 SRT. Can someone tell me if it will fit someone who is 6 foot 2 1/2? Or do you know if the interior dimensions are larger or smaller than in the 2004 coupe? That's the only one I have had a chance to sit in, and the fit was tight but acceptable. I would appreciate hearing back from someone who can say for certain, as it could save me a wasted flight.

Thanks in advance.
Dave

The SRT6 is the same size inside as the 2004 Coupe.

Not to get personal but what weight at 6' 2"? I only ask because I am 6' 200 lbs and I fit in the driver's seat. My brother is 6' 3" and 250 and he can't fit behind the wheel but he fits in the passenger seat.

I test drove an '07 N/A before I bought the SRT and it felt a bit roomier than the SRT but I have no idea what the specs say.

Just been reading a 2003 press report on the coupe - the journalist would have preferred a slightly roomier cabin but admitted he's 6ft 8in !!
If he could manage, it should be fine for almost everyone else...
ALL coupes are identical size - regardless of year.

Default Reply to everyone who responded

I have not yet figured out how to reply individually, so thanks to all who responded. To the person who asked about size, I'm about 220. It's the height that worried me, but the 04 coupe was as good as most cars for a fit. The fix someone posted will be a big help. To the person that asked if it is really for my wife, I will admit only to not being sorry that she doesn't want another Toyota. Thanks to all for your advice. Dave
