6' 7"... I win so far!  Weight is 235lbs.
For me, a perimeter 2" by 4" frame makes all the difference in the world, I sit down between the rails.
I still need a bit more legroom to be really comfortable, anyone know of a good pedal set that has short travel? Mine hinges from the top of the footbox, and has crazy long travel, I was thinking of the floor mounted kind, they seem to be much shorter travel.

I'm 6'0". I tried to fit in a NAF once & couldn't fit. I know ERA & Unique(see above) can fit people a lot taller than I. My Car has a couple inches behind the seat.

I fit
When I owned my car, CSX 3183, I never had a problem. I am 6-6, at that time I weighed 230, and I have size 14 shoes., Never had a problem with my knees hitting the dash, nor finding room for my feet, or a problem with having the top up.
Yes my head would rub the top, yes my thighs were very close to the steering wheel, and yes I had to manipulate my left foot behind the clutch pedal. My feet burned from the heat, and with the top down, I couldn't see hardly at all, since my head was higher than the windshield.
All A VERY small price to pay, to own and drive the best damn car ever built, for sheer power, fun, excitment, and envy. If you want to drive a sports car, no matter what it is, and it's your dream car, there shouldn't be anything that you can't overcome.
I mean, your not driving a Lincoln. If the above problems prevent you from owning a Cobra, then your not worthy anyhow.
