Default Taller Driver... Will I fit?

I have seen reports of taller drivers not fitting in the xD well. I am strongly considering the xD, because I like it a lot, but I am curious... will I fit in it?

I have not yet got a chance to test drive one, so I know that's the best solution. However, I am looking at purchasing one online, since it's much cheaper, so I want to see if I would fit.

I am 6 feet, 3 inches tall. I fit into Hyundai Accents, Chevy Aveos/HHRs, and Toyota Corollas/Matrix just fine. I, however, do NOT fit into the Hyundai Veloster, or a Toyota Celica. That's about all the examples I can give. I am okay if it's not a perfect fit (especially if I could get late model seats put in to alleviate the problem). I just want to know if I will fit at all!

Any feedback is appreciated!

I'm 6'3" and I fit into my first gen tC. You'll probably fit into an xD since they're more economical than the tC. I also fit into my ex-girlfriends xA, which is smaller than the xD.

im 6'3 and have a fairly long torso so i sit taller than some in a chair.

my head was def close to the roof when i was in the car, with a slight recline on the back of the seat i found that i fit very comfortably in the car and never had issues. the only issue i could really see is if you have really long legs, because even fully back i found my legs to be a little cramped until i swapped my steering wheel out. i could see it being a bit bothersome if you have long legs
