6' 2" eyes of blue.....

head room feels cramped, how 'bout you?

Any taller folk find the cabin a little tight? I'm not overly big at 185 pounds, but my head really seems to be awfully close to the roof. Couldn't find a car without the sunroof in hopes of getting another inch or so. How are you taller drivers coping?

I'm 6'2" as well, but heavier, and have no problems in my journey. I just moved the seat back and down as much as possible. Sport seats however no can do.

Some tall dudes on this forum... they say it's more comfortable than most.

Maybe you need to rethink your hairdo?

I've got 'em all the way down. Maybe I need to lean the seat back more.

+1,
As a sidenote, Im assuming the g37 might give us a lower seating position, but also a lower roof, giving us the same head room.

I am 6'2" 200 lbs.

and have no issues at all with the interior space. I don't feel cramped. Headroom is not an issue at all.

Cause, like some other big guys have said, the width of the seats is a bit snug.

hmmmm.... well I guess I'll have to sit in a few before my final purchase. Is the snug seat worth the other Sport amenities?

I am 6'4" in my 2007 g35x. It is a little tight but OK with the seat all the way down and most of the way back

6'7" 275 lbs, much bigger than most in here, but fit nice in my G35x. Just can't accept any passengers behind me lol. It's just as roomy as my trailblazer if not roomier. One thing I noticed was that if I tilt the steering halfway up and pull it out towards me (telescopic), I have more room to swing my knees left to right. Test drove the 2008 QX56 and it's pretty much the same believe it or not.
