I am 6'5" and really would like to order a GS 300 AWD without a sunroof. Is this possible?

I have heard mixed reports. At some time point during the year they make a few of them so they could quote a lower MSRP. Mostly they go to the south.

I can not drive the GS 300, I am 6'5", way too low...

I test drove the GS430 a few nights ago. I am 6'4" so I was also a little concerned about headroom. Getting in and out seemed to be the biggest challenge. Because of the lower roofline I found myself really bending to get inside to avoid bumping my head. The good news for us taller folks is that once inside I was very comfortable. Leg room was more than adequate with the seats fully back. Vision out of the front window was a little limited but not a deal breaker. Anyone sitting behing me would be a little cramped, but such is the case for any car I drive. Hope this post helps. Anyone have any thoughts on whether they would consider the GS for a family sedan with a small child?
