I'm 6'4" tall and I had concerns about fitting in the 3GS. I would say I have just enough headroom, but nothing to spare. And that's with a coat too.

I'm still waiting for my car to arrive. During my 1-1/2 day demo I didn't notice any ticking sound from inside the GS300. I could hear the ticking while outside the car. When pressed, I liked the sound of the engine. No, it's not as quiet as say, a LS, but I wouldn't want that much driver isolation. The exhaust could give a lttle more growl, but at least there's some engine feedback.
