    Geo Metro Convertible.

    No kidding.

    My friend that’s 6’7″ said it was the most comfortable car he’d ever driven.

    The new Honda Civics are kinda cool. Basically you want something that has good gas mileage and low maintenance, right?

    I know a guy at work who’s 6’8″ and loves his new Saab. Avoid Japanese cars. I’m only 6′, but I have long legs and I was completely uncomfortable in every Japanese import I test drove. I ended up with a Chevy Blazer, which is really comfortable.

    My understanding of the effect that all those zero-percent finance offers had on the market is this:

    Prices of USED cars are 10 to 20 percent lower than they were last summer. And there’s LOTS of really good trade-ins on the dealer-lots.

    At 6’8″, I’m comfortable in our Chevy Astro van, and like to drive the wifes’ Honda CRV-EX, now that we’ve added custom seat cushions.

    Buy A Saab 9-3 convertable. The guys will be after you for miles and miles around. I am after you and you don’t even have the car yet!

    Try a Ford Ranger. Lots of leg and head room.

    I am 6’2 and have the same problem (long torso). The beetle has NO headroom. strange but true. I actually have found that the Volkswagen Jetta has a lot, as does the Honda Accord. Fords are miserable, forget em. I used to have a Saab and loved it, but with a sunroof headroom can be a problem.
