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.
