I'm about 195 cm (that's 6' 6" ?), and not that small otherwise either (;-), and quite happy driving my XK8 Coupe. Obviosly the seat is at the max. position but for ordinary driving it has been quite fine. One needs a few days to learn how to get in and out of the car without hitting your head anywhere. Also it helps that the XK8 isn't manual..I also tried Audi TT Coupe and Roadster some time ago. Both were fine although I had to put the seat in a bit upwards position to have enough room for the legs. I still need to try Porsche Boxster but in the showroom it felt a bit too small.
