Big enough for a driver who is 6'6"?

I'm 5'6'' and like to sit upright with a straight back, meaning back flush against the seat. Plenty of room on the front, but at the back the ceiling barely skims my head when resting against the headrest. I can't imagine myself sitting in the back if I were 6', again sitting straight up with pelvis flush against the back. So I'd advise you to sit in it yourself. Note the rear seats have 2 incline positions so try both to see which gives more headroom.

Test drove an EX today. As far as headroom is concerned...lots of space. Even with the moon roof I had plenty of space (which usually causes a problem). Seemed like similar legroom for my right leg as my Impreza. But the left leg? Something wasn't right. The little footrest thing to the left was closer than on my Impreza and the space to the right of that seemed good a good fit as far as length but....just didn't feel right.
So I left the dealership. Funny thing...I get in my car and start comparing the legroom. Now my Impreza doesn't feel right.

Same here. When I have some time, I'm going to look and see if it's possible to fabricate an offset that will let me reposition the seat rail back an inch or two. It's not uncomfortable, but a scoch more legroom wouldn't be unwelcome.

With the rear seat set more upright, I have about an inch of room, but if I move my head towards the window to peek at the front view, it's a finger height to almost touching because of the sloping roof to the sides. But, set the seat to the more reclined position, and it gets really close to my head. Again, this is my back completely saddled against the seat, but if I slouch a little I can easily get 1 or 2 inches extra headroom.

I'm 6' and could use a little more leg room, like 1 or 2
more notches back. I'm coming from a 2014 versa note that was totaled so maybe I'm just used to having more space since it was a little roomier. This 2015 fit ex-l is a way better car though. Feels better made/ more fun/ better looking and the touchscreen is way bigger and better. I'm loving this car more and more each day 😎
