I'm 5'7 and if i set the seat as high as it goes i'm still quite a ways away from hitting the roof.... Whos the tallest person in a cobalt here and how comfortable are you?

 

I'm 6'2" and I still have a couple notches to spare in the front seat.

No headroom issues either...in the front seat, anyway.

 

im 6'2 i sit with the seat all the way down, when my hair is spiked it hits the roof haha

 

I'm 6'-0" with a 34 inseam...

I have the seat cracnked allll the way down, and I only have 1.5" of space between my head and the headliner. I have to keep my hair short of it drives me nutty...

That said... I don't like sitting back ( reclined ) in the seat due to trying to keep my arms slightly bent. I prefer to have myeslf a little closer to the pedals, so it gets a bit tedious to get the position right.

I wish the car had a telescoping wheel... that would make MY life a lot easier.

 

i think tiny is like 6'5 wonder how he fits haha

 

I'm 6'7 and I agree on the Telescoping wheel. If I have my seat at a comfortable ammount of recline to reach the wheel I have to slouch a bit.

Honestly though.. I don't fit in much of anything. The new GTI is pretty good though. So was my friends 89 Celica

I've come to accept that nothing will work so I just make it work.

You should see me trying to fly...

 

Its kinda odd that GM put in a lift crank on the seat. I put it up all the way and i felt like i was in a childs car seat. not to mention what other people would think looking over at me and my seat is alot higher than my passenger. i'm sure someone with a kinky gf would appreciate that LOL

 

but that's why it goes down all the way too!!

 

Honda has a telescoping wheel. So short thugs can ride gangsta too hahahahaha

 

Telescoping wheel would definitely help. When I get my seat in the right spot for footwork, it makes me wish the steering wheel was just an inch or two closer. But it still works for me.

 

Yeah, I've not found many "sports cars" that i fit in well.

I came close to a Mini Cooper S just beacsue I fit in it so well.

The GTI ( last gen ) was ok to fit in, and the WRX was iffy. The RSX-S fit nice, but you HAVE to sit back in that...lol

The new GTI's aren't bad either. I actually really like those cars as far as comfort.

I also wish the Recaros were std on the SS/SC. Those area a bit more comfortable from waht I've found.

 

i'm 6'2 and i was suprised to see how much room the drivers cockpit had compared to my wifes 2001 sunfire gt
I couldnt drive the sunfire for more than an hour.

 

Im 6ft4in 280lbs and the seats all the way back and all the way down and I feel like my arms are 3 inches two short lots of head room thoe.

 

my bros 6'6 and could bearly drive it.... funny thing is hes a frshmen in highschool lol hes tall as ***

 

my nephew is 6' 5" and has not problems at all.

 

I sat in one at the local auto show. I found it hard to get into. I got into the Mini Cooper S Checkmate easier. But once I was in, I was Fine. Not to be said about the HHR though...

 

well I'm 6,6 and have the recaros and if you adjust the lumbar, or whatever its called, like ur supposed to when doin some serious driven then there's no problem with headroom. just jack the seat all the way down so it more of a bucket

 

You're not kidding there, I once sat in a '97 mustang and I had to wedge my legs under the steering wheel. hehe.

6'1 here, no issues, but I recline the seat slightly. My biggest issue is trying to get my boat-sized shoes out of the door when I get out. I always get them wedged in between the bottom of the door and the floor panel. hehe.

 

I'm 6'2-6'3 adn around 270 lbs and I have no problem with headroom..Legroom if kinda iffy.. I drive with the seat all the way down, reclined a bit, and almost all teh way back..I guess my legs are too long, cuz I always hit my knees on the dash..

 

im 6'5", no problems
the coupes have so much more room
i dont even need to have the seat all the way back either
the height adjustable seat is nice!

 

Im 6'4" and i have the seat moved up a notch. I have never had soo much room in a car before. Now the backseats are a different story.... i guess thats why i drive.

later

 

damn we got some tall people on this board....kenny is the 6 foot 5 ish range...he fits fine in the pass. seat and has driven it before and hasnt complained....the cavalier on the other hand he hates...wayyyy small

 

I'm 6'1 and a little over 300 lbs and I have no problems fiting in my car, I actually have the keep the seat forward a couple of notches. I agree with those one here that say the cobalt needs a telescoping steering wheel it is way to far away in relation to where the driver sits comfortably in the seat.

 

I agree with that also, my arms get tired from reaching up to the steering wheel and if I move my seat up then my legs are cramped. o well.

later

 

yea, and the arm rests on the door needs to be higher lol
