I even moved the seat forward as far as I could stand to see how much room I could make in the back seat. I could make enough to be possible to sit in. Definitely not somewhere you would want to sit for any period of time though. It is usable though, especially for smaller people.
I had that same problem on my very first test drive, I forgot to adjust the seat height, and the adjustment lever for it is a bit wonky.

Im glad you gave it another go! Its pretty amazing that the car has this much adjustment in it, I actually havent even fiddled with the telescope or tilt/height of the steering wheel yet either.
