Default for those over 6 feet...

i just met a regional manager for scion who was in the bay area dressing up his black cherry scion tc... he let me sit in the car and we talked about it (still waiting for my local dealership to get a 5spd in).

anyway, i'm 6'3" and with the seat all the way back i still found i had plenty of room - the headroom is tightish, but it's no way as tight as i expected. also, the black cherry scion looks supersweet, i was most impressed by the look and feel of the car inside and out... now i just gotta drive one

anyway, i'm gonna get in touch with him again next week once he puts some 18s on it, and i'll take my camera and get some photos if i can

im 6'1 and I felt very comfortable , interior feels very personal . hatch opens by a press of a buttom under the mid brakelight . The rear seats and the luggage area looked alot smaller than I thought. I sat in the rear seats, the leg space was ok , but not enough head room for a big guy like me in a upright position, once I tilted back the seat it was much better. The drive was smooth...brake , and handing was very responsive, odometers are orange looked pretty cool.
after test driving it and seeing it in person , I want this car even more!

few pics...

i drove tc today, m 6 exact n i will say front seat was just ok i could only fit my four fingers between my head n roof. The rear seats not good at all for head room, my head was touching the hatch (forgot the seats were reclining ). I would say rear seat is not good for tall people, otherwise a pretty good car

For once, I'm glad I am not tall. But I hate being short cause I love attending concerts.

4 fingers is a good amount of head room in a car... I'd take that anyday.

I'm 6'4" and it's okay with the seat tilted back and the moonroof visor open.
