Default TTs for Taller Drivers?

How many of the TT drivers are tall? I am 6'5" and really like the styling of the TT but I'm not sure if it would be a car that I could fit in. A friend of mine is 6'3" and has a 225TT Roadster but it doesn't look like you can recline the seat at all with it all the way back. The coupe may be easier but I am just wondering what kind of info you TTrs might have. Thanks!

Default I am 6'7" and 250lbs. No problems...I love it

The roadster has no room. They moved the seat 3" forward to accomodate the roof mechanism.

Default My seat does not recline in the roadster even when it is forward.

I am 6'3 and fit fine, head room would let me be 6'5 but leg room would be iffy to change gears regularly.

Default Coupe is no problem, I wasn't as comfy in the Roadster I test drove...

I'm 6'3", 240 lbs, 32" waist/34" inseam. I recently test drove a Boxster and was kind of cramped by comparison. TT Coupe has miles of shoulder room, IMO.

Default Re: I am 6'5" and 210lbs. No problems in a TTR

In a perfect world I would like to have an inch or 2 of more leg room, but I am VERY comfortable in my roadster !
I moved the seat forward approx. 1" so I could put the seatback a few degrees.
It works great for me !

It's the SHORTER drivers that have a problem. If you're under 5' you can't drive this car.
