I'm 6'2 & currently thinking about a MKV to replace my 02 WRX (soon to be 39)...I would essentially like something with better gas mileage & more luxurious interior. For the most part, I really don't expect to haul around a car load of people...That said, I like having a ton of storage space in the rear if ever needed (fold down seats is a plus). That said, my wife thinks I'm absolutely nuts & laughs whenever I mention the GTI...She thinks I should be driving a more mature boat like a TL. The irony is that she is 5' & likes big SUV like vehicles. I am curious to know from the tall folks in the forum & how they fare in their GTI. Thanks in advance.
