Ja I'm 6'6" w/36 inseam and not a problem to fit... a snug fit to be totally honest but a fit nonetheless...

At least it didn't stop me from ordering mine on the 22nd... September is coming WAY too slow

Be sure to report back; my local dealers aren't getting any non-GTs, period. One has one open "third wave" order slot for MY 2004, but my deposit becomes unrefundable if I order a Sport because they say they won't be able to sell such a "stripped down" 8 if I back out. If I wanted to play odds I'd throw the deposit on a craps table instead...
BillK -- first --- just test drove a non-GT MUCH more headroom than the GT IMO. I am 6'3" and while I think the GT is barely adequate the sport has plenty of headroom. I would estimate about 2 or so inches more headroom.

second -- there are a couple of sports sitting here for sale in Omaha -- yellow and red. I think there may be a few in N. Platte also -- only a 4 hour drive from Louisville.

My first roadie will be to Boulder for a nostalgic revisit to CU just like the many trips in my old RX-7 -- I just won't have to pack a dorm room full of stuff in the back :D

Well, my fingers are crossed - my dealer found out he does have a pre-order Sport coming in Monday, so he'll let me sit in it quickly before he delivers it.

A test drive at any dealer is pretty much a fantasy at this point, but it doesn't matter anyway if I don't fit in the Sport. :D

I'm 6'7 and I just sat in one with the GT package today and couldnt fit. Without the moonroof you should be fine, as I had plenty of headroom. Only thing that sucks is you cant get some options you might want!

Tell me about it... I could go without the leather seats, but I wanted heated seats.

Oh well, at this point I'll just be happy if I can fit in the Sport, we shall see...
