Default A5 for the taller man

Hi guys,

It's good to be part of the forum. I'm looking at purchasing a Audi A5 S line Coupe, around 2010-2012.

The problem is I'm 6 foot 6 - does this present any issues for anyone in a similar situation?

I'm fairly confident I can physically fit in the drivers seat, but in terms of long term comfort/the wellbeing of my back, I'm not so sure.

Any advice would be gratefully received.

Don't know if you ever proceeded with your purchase, but I am 6'3" with a 36" inseam. I have no problems, but I do have to have the seat low for some added head room.

Default 6'2" here

Im 6'2" and 240 pounds with a 32" inseam (taller torso than legs) and I fit fine.
I put the seat as far back as it goes, reduced the angle of the seatback and overall seat high down to the floor and I squeeze about 2.5" of headroom. I am using the sport seats with sliding bolster which helps on long car trips, and I have the lumbar fully inflated. I also tilt the front of the seat up to allow my legs to rest on the front edge of the bolster. my longest trip has been 3.5 hours one way
Hope this helps
