Default RC F : Good car for tall drivers?

I am 6'4" and the RC F is one of the few sports cars that can accommodate my height. I have sat in or driven cars like the Porsche Cayman and Corvette, and found them so cramped that I could barely drive.

How many of you are tall, and how has the RC F worked out?

One of the things I think the RC F seats are lacking is seat cushion extensions for thigh support. Having this would make longer drives more tolerable.

This is the first car I have driven in years that actually has enough leg room for me. I can get a perfect driving position for my height.

You're 6'5" and can fit in your ISF with a helmet too? Im 6' flat and my hair rubs up against the ceiling.

6'6 240lbs and fit without any issues. One of the reasons why I went with this car versus other comparable sports cars which I needed a shoe horn to get in and out of.
