I've been wondering how tall are all the 6th gen owners out there? Obviously, Toyota did not build our cars for tall people but I'm curious how big someone can be and still fit comfortably into a Celica.
I'm 5' 7" and I don't have much room above MY head so I can only imagine how difficult it is for anyone taller. I know my brother is 5' 10" and he doesn't like riding in my car. The lack of headroom really doesn't bother me and I didn't buy my car for anyone else's comfort so I really don't care. Just wondering if this was an issue with anybody or are we all midgets?

I think ths is KINDA... off topic, but anyway
I'm 5'10" and I'm good. Its the back seat that SUCKS for tall or even average height people. David |

5'8" and comfortable. My dad is 6'01" and brother 6'02", they don't have a problem with it. True though, the backseat is painful...

I'm 6'2" but I have "long" legs I guess... really I dont fit, head room is fine just recline the seat... but my legs are pretty bent, but you need to sacrafice comfort for style
and I really only fit in trucks and I hate trucks.

I'm 5'4". No prpblems here.
Gosh I really didn't think anyone over 5'10" would feel at all comfortable in our celicas? Has anyone ever sat in the newer style eclipses? Head room in the back seat sucks. I think it's our Celi's are more spacious than the Eclipses. IMO Just a thought. This post has been edited by CelicaQT: Oct 18, 2003 - 1:55 AM |

6'4" I fit fine but gotta lay the seat back... got plenty of leg room with the bottom of the seat slide all the way back too.
BTW: in cars like ours the back seats are really ment for passangers.. there more for insurance purposes --------------------  99 project version 3.0.. hello SEMA 2010 =) |
