Default How short do you have to be?

When I have seen the Ford GT, the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8, and the new Mustangs, they all look really small.
I'm 5'10". Am I gonna be able to fit comfortably into any of these cars or the new Dodge Challenger?
I hate riding in tiny, cramped cars.
I read a couple of reviews about the Ford GT written by tall guys (probably over 6') who really did not fit in it and
had to do ridiculous things to be able to drive it.

My problem is getting a good tilt steering wheel so my girlfriend has more headroom. I hate convertibles but she likes em for the legroom!

Of course, if you were to by the Ford GT or the Challenger and find that they are too uncomfortable for your height, you can always give it to me, knowing I would fit just fine in it. [sm=icon_cheers.gif]

That was bad. I had to think about that one.

The Ford GT40 had the Gurney bubble for you taller guys. Supposedly the new Ford GT was modified so height was not a problem.

I doubt the Challenger will be an issue for you. It seems like it will be a larger vehicle. Just because it is a coupe doesn't mean it will be small. Normally tin cans on wheels are roadsters (2 seaters), but this will hardly be compact. What exactly do you currently drive?
