Thinking of buying Celica, but is it comfy?

I'm thinking of buying a 2000 red Celica GTS. Anybody been in one of these, or own?

I'm 6'2", 190lbs and it's a long way to go look at the car (it's beautiful from the pics though) and I'm concerned I'll feel cramped in the driver's seat. I don't care about being comfy elsewhere in the vehicle.

Thanks,

Any chance you can find a similar vehicle closer by, not to purchase just to sit in?

might be a bit tight. But makdaddy has the right idea. find one closer and sit in it.

The seats aren't too bad, and there is plenty of leg room if you drop the seat back (whoever sits in the back will have little to no room, but u don't buy a car like this for ppl to sit in the back anyways).

I love the 7th gen celica! Almost bought one, but it was out of my budget at the time.

My buddy has one and I have driven it many times. I am 6 feet 190 lb (trying to get to 180 )

The Celica is JUST right for me, but being a car guy, I like the support and it being tight. Imagine me in my S2000!

But I can see it being tight for some people, try it before you buy it!!! THe back seat..... dont even try it......
