Im 6'6 255 lbs. ive drove a couple of 13' s with sunroofs and i seemed to fit ok.. are the 14's much different headroom wise? Being this tall you have to learn how to sit differently in cars like these lol Im looking to order a 14 1le next summer and i love the look of the recaros but am i too wide to fit in them? Im not way fat or anything but just big

No interior changes (aside from the Recaro seat option) between 13 and 14.

I'm 6'2", and I have the sunroof. When I bought my car there were only 3 in the Southeast and all of them had the sunroof as an option. I have to recline my seat more than I'd like, and when I go over large bumps in the road my head hits the sunroof molding. How funny is that!

^^^^Why didn't you wait for the 2014, with no sunroof, and Recaro seating as well? Instead, you elect to sign away 40-50G's, to deal with rubbing head on ceiling issues, perhaps even on a daily basis.

Was the 2014 THAT ugly to you?

Hey guys,

Height shouldn't cause any Issue with HUD on any models. I think folks are setting it wrong. If you are taller you do not want to set the setting higher, you actually need to set it Lower. When set properly I can press my head against the roof and see it fine. I can see how this can be confusing, but set properly if gives a pretty large range.
