oh you can fit them but it kind of depends on your driving style..I am 6'1 and I like to drive with my legs stretched out a little. When someone is in the backseat I hate it because I have to move up some which crunches up my legs...I do have long legs though!

im 6ft also and like Pirate400 i like to drive with some leg room so i basically have to slide the seat all the way back and that leave very little room to those that sit behind me. There is plenty of leg, head and arm room. I would say its a comfortable 3 person car.

I'm a 5'8" shorty, when I had spikey hair it'd brush the lining all the time (but I don't have no gangsta lean... I sit up straight so I don't get hunchback)... now I've got a sexy bald head so I don't have that problem no more But as the others I like my leg room (I've got my seat all the way back)

I'm 6' tall the car is great for 2 people. But if you need lots of room this is not the car for you. Keep in mind this is a coupe. Best thing for you to do go and test drive one and see how it feel for your self. FYI you will like any SC .

I'm 6'5" and Nobody can sit behind me because I have to move the seat all the way back and recline the seat a bunch and my head still hits the top on the occasional bump. Our 8 year old doesn't even fit behind me when I drive. Defenitely not a comfortable four person car if any of them are over 6ft.

I'm a 6' 247# linebacker.. ..I run my seat back and purchased supra seats to sit lower and better support... ..
Adults can fit in the back for short trips... .
