Same here (6'-1.5"). No headroom problems, but need seat all the way back for adequate legroom.

 

Same here and while I also have the seat pushed as far back as it goes, I do also have the seat raised ever so slightly as I like seeing just the top of the hood/vents. Reminds me what I'm driving

 

6' 3" - no concerns at all in the coupe

 

There are advantages to being 5' 10".

 

Or 5'2" ....

 

Unfortunately most of my time will not be on a track but more practically a garage, parallel park scooting in tight traffic. I'm a couple weeks from finding out if this works for the ftype. I learned to manage in a 911 where the hood drops off so should be ok

 

I was thinking the same thing. Where is the facepalm emoticon...?

 

I'm 6'8" and only dream of fitting in an f-type

 

If I were so plagued, I would install a Recaro racing bucket: lower seat height, more legroom (thinner backrest), less weight.
As is, at 6'-2", plenty of headroom left over for a "stoker" hat.

 

My problem isn't getting in. Getting out in a fluid motion is something I'm still perfecting. That sill is higher on the inside than it looks ;-)

 

I'm 6'4 and fit. I don't feel cramped but I wouldn't mind a few more inches of leg room. In terms of head room, there are about 4 inches between my head and roof. My last car was a BMW 650i which had a lot more space but I like the cockpit feel of the F-type R. I've only had my car since Saturday so I'm still getting used to it and trying to find the best seat position.

 

Putting my left hand on the sill while rolling out/standing up works for me. I'm sure it looks graceful.

 

+1!

 

I'm also 6'4" and feel that my F Type R is comfortable. I could use my leg room but I tend to wear flat buttom shoes when driving the R. At this time there is no other car I would prefer other than the F Type.

 

The first step is that you have to want to fit in there. If you go in expecting to feel cramped, you probably will.

 

I gave up on grace a long time ago The door jam and seat back are my exit assist. Love it when I have the top down I just grab the top of the wind screen. Getting in.......well I just call it the "hip slide"

 

Me too, but that has nothing to do with the car.

 

I've hit my head getting in my XF 10 times compared to 0 times in my FType.

 

I'm 6'4" and I don't know how you guys can sit more or less comfortably in the F-Type, it was impossible for me when I've test-driven it. I'm also somewhat muscular and it was extremely cramped, especially my head was pretty much near the roof even with the best seat configuration.

I guess it's just different when you actually own the car and you are more tolerable because how awesome it is and the height just isn't enough of a "problem" to give up on the car. ;-)

 

Hard to understand. I'm 6'-2" and with the seat all the way down, I have at least 4-5" of headroom. You must have a lot more seat padding (muscle, of course).
