    Depends, I'm 6'3" and no problem. Took a mate whos 5'11" for a drive and his head was hard in the roof. He could only see the headlining and sun visor. He is long torso and short legs. I'm the other way round.

    I would say that girth is more of an issue than height. It would be difficult to squeeze into a 360 if one had a very high BMI. I'm 6'0" and have plenty of headroom.

    Sport seats will give you extra headroom. I am 6'1" with the carbon seats and have like 7 more inches above my head and tons of room to slide the chair back for extra leg room also. So I am a fan of the sport seats.

    MUCH more room than my F355.

    I'm 6'1", and when I had my 360, I fit fine, but I have to admit, it was borderline. I was almost in line with the visor. I feel like if I was 2" taller, it may have been an issue. But as others said, it has to do more with proportions. The one way to know for sure is to test drive it to see if you're comfortable.

    6'6" Modena, no problems. With normal seats, I was about 1-2 clicks off the rear most setting on the seat rail and had about 2cm of head room. Biggest issue I had with standard seats is the bolsters wrap around under the head rest and would push my shoulders forward. Changed to carbon race seats, now have about 4cm of headroom and fit like a glove.

    I’m 6’4” and I drove a 360 spider for awhile and I was very comfortable. I had power Daytona’s and never had an issue.

    As sports cars go for tall people, the 360 is about as good as it gets.

    Found some stats in Road and Track August 1999 issue that I would have liked to have had before I bought my 360. So here they are. Head Room is 36.5 inches, Leg Room is 46.5 inches, Seatback Adjustment is 35 Degrees and Seat Travel is 9.0 Inches.

    Those stats. They tell you whether or not you will fit in a 360?

    6'5" Have been enjoying my 360 Spider for going on 6 years now.
    Still; I'd love to have Cruise Control when driving to far away events.

    Make sure you at least sit in one.
    I’m not that tall, 6’, but broad shoulders...and I hate the Daytona seats. Feels like half my shoulders are outside the seat. But everything else is fine. It’s actually fairly roomy. But the gotdamn seatbacks.
