You need to try some other cars. I'm 6'3 (with at least 2 inches of spiked hair) and fit in my teeny little Toyota MR2 comfortably.

I dont see why people get all up in arms over the SUV issue. If people want to buy an SUV, good for them. The bumper laws is a good point though. I used to have a Chevy truck lifted 8 inches. If I ever hit someone with that, even most SUVs, I'd be hitting them right at head level. If I T-Boned someone who happened to be driving a convertible, the skid guard of my truck would have ripped the top half of their torso off. Just something to think about
