I went to Rassas pontiac today with my dad to look at it. Guy let us sit in it. What a POS. First of all I couldnt. My dad (who is 6'4) barely got it. And then couldnt clutch. What the hell pontiac. Why make a decent car for kasey sized people only? I hope the sky is bigger.

the sky is the same size with different seats(supposed to be a deeper bucket so that may help) i am 5'7"ish and i had no problem adjusting the seats to a reasonable position when i sat in it.
i have been asking around to different friends and dealerships and so far the number of problems they are seeing with the solstice are minimal, much fewer than with many other new car lines that have come out recently.
did you drive it? it is hard to get a feel for a clutch sitting in a showroom, especially a new one.

Drive? I couldnt sit in it. My dad hit his head getting in in and couldnt bend his knee to clutch. Im a good 3-4" taller.

Koll, you are 500lbs, and your dad aint no light weight either. I fit in the car just fine. Bob Lutz, being 9'11" himself, can fit into the car. You, sir, are crap.

No, but he is a very very tall man, id say he is around 6'8"-6'9". At press events, he towers next to the microphone booms.
