Anyone over 6ft 2 in height?
I am looking at purchasing a SLK55. I am out of the country on business but I wanted to see how roomie the cabin is for you tall guys.

I am 6ft 3.

I have a Plymouth Prowler and Pontiac solstice coupe. Both are snug for me and I am looking to get rid of them for a more well rounded daily driver that has more room in the interior. Unfortunately, I am fan of very small cars but rarely can I fit in them

seems like it would be a tight fit, why not track down a local car and check it out? seems like the only way to gauge it's interior space

The electric drivers seat adjusted

to allow more legroom than the

manual drivers seat

For me it made a difference


Thank-You
