Hey Hal.....I'm 6'2" and I have about an inch
clearance. Jim is right about adjusting the
seat through a 'leaning' approach. One question for you that might be of some consolation:
Did the car you sit in have a 'moon-roof' or
a 'sun-roof' (most came with the sun roof)?

Here in Denver Colorado, there are a couple of 8 series running around with moonroofs...and that cuts the height even more! Only a 5'10" person could be comfortable.

I want an 8 series so bad. I found one I want went to test drive it and my head just scrape the top I made adjustments but I was still close to the top. I'm 6'3 to 6'4 range. How tall are you guys? any one have this problem besides me!!!!
