Which Mercedes car for tall guys?

I've had great luck with MB, have an 03 CLK and a 2010 ML in the family. I'm tall and fit in the CLK just ok, but the ML is great and very spacious.

Was looking at the past two Generations of E class and the CLS and I have zero headroom.

What MB's are you tall guys driving? Was hoping for a 4-door sporty sedan, but doesn't seem like MB can serve my height.

Take a convertible

j/k

How tall are you?

Try a W212 w/o sunroof...

Or a W211 w/o power seats and sunroof...

I'm about 6ft tall and if the car has a sunroof my headroom is also not that great...

Hmm, I always thought having a sunroof added room. Maybe I was wrong.

I'm 6' 2" and I have lots of headroom in my 2005 C230 with a sunroof.
