You wouldn't fit well in any of them. They are all very small cars.
I'm 6'4" and avoid driving that car whenever possible. It's not only
small inside, it's LOW.
****. Here I thought the BMW's might have a lot more leg room than the Boxster or
Miata. So far, that Karman Ghia I had in Germany wins in the leg room contest. Even
my wife's Jetta has a lot of leg room, although it is low also. I used to be 6'4",
but now have to stretch to get to 6'3".
I am a midget at 6'2 but I am OK in my Honda Prelude.
I test-sat in a Crosstour. Lots of room. If they'd sold it with a manual tranny I
might have bought it.
I don't know why car manufactures don't always provide plenty of leg room. I'd have a
Miata in a heartbeat, if it had leg room. The car gets rave reviews, except for tall
folks. The same is true of the Cayman - beautiful little car, probably maxi-fun to
drive, but about three inches too little leg room. These manufacturers are cutting
out some sure sales by skimping on the leg room.
At the auto show, I sat in more than one crossover SUV that didn't
have enough legroom in the driver's seat, and I'm only 5'10"
