6'4" @ 240. Getting in and out can be a pain, particularly when in a tight parking spot. (Car sits very low, and the "B" pillar is farther forward than I would prefer. However, once inside the car, it is very comfortable.

I've lost 40 pounds since owning the IS 350. 6' 0" @ 240 lbs is much more comfortable than 280 lbs. That said 240 lbs is still tight. Getting in and out might depend how far back you like to set your seat too.

I'm 5'10" and 160 lbs, so not that tall. However, with a 36" inseam, I have quite long legs. Headroom is never an issue for me and my short torso, so it's just fine in the IS. However, legroom can be challenging in some cars, but in the IS I have no problem getting comfortable.

Its great once your inside but getting in/out got real old for me. In GS now

I am 6"3 an I fit comfortably. The IS is not really a family car because the front seats can slide pretty FAR back to give you significantly extra leg room. I find my car super comfortable in side. Getting in and out can be a pain because the B Pillar is a little too forward. I sit sholdeer next to the B pillar and getting out, it gets in the way when exiting the vehicle. Ive never had that issue with it on any other car

6'4ish and my head hit the the ceiling with the seat at the lowest seat position. And there's no way anyone would be able to fit behind me. Depends on how bad your posture is and how tall your upper body is.
