I'm 6'6" and I have no problems with it. You DO have the seat pumped the hole way to the ground, right? I have issue without that. On the Gen Coupe, I would agree, you should test drive one. I was looking at them before I bought my FRS but couldn't find one to test drive. 3 months after I got my FRS the dealer called and said they finally got one (R Spec) and told me to come in and test drive it. I did and was COMPLETELY underwhelmed. Driving off that lot and the 30 minute drive home in my FRS was so ridiculously fun! (Of course I was putting her through her paces for comparison and she easily won) The Gen Coupe feels slow. At least in the FRS, which so many people say is too slow, I FEEL like I'm going fast and it's more fun. The turbo lag on the Gen Coupe was beastly, which I hate, but to each his own. Plus, in all honesty, how often do you run 0-60s with your car or race people on the street? Now how often do you take turns at high speeds with a huge grin on your face?

Moral of the story: Tis better to drive a slow car fast than it is to drive a fast car slow!
