Corolla XRS Headroom space ? - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

Hi,

I'm very interested by the Corolla XRS 2005, the only thing bothering me is that I think that I may be too tall for it...

I recently tried it and my head hit the ceilling (because of the moonroof). I'm not sure if the seat was set to the lowest position...

Any of you XRS owner ar 6 feet 2 inches ?? and are not hiting the ceilling ???

Thanks !

the XRS would probably have the same headroom as any other 05 Corollas.. I think the only diff would be the sportier seats, maybe more tight-fitting than a regular seat.

I'm 6'2" and have plenty of headroom. Unless you have absurdly short legs and a long torso, you shouldn't have a problem.

The specs mentions 39.3 inches for the regular Corolla and 37.8 inches for the XRS (because of the moonroof).

That small difference is a big one in my case

I'll have to do another test drive and check my confort by lowering the seat at its lowest !

Thank you

XRS has a seat height adjuster so it could be lowered or raised to your liking. I am 5'10" and despite having a moonroof in my XRS, I have plenty of headroom.

i'm 6'4" and i really dont have a whole lot of head room in my xrs....but i think most of that is due to teh moonroof....meh, its a small price to pay

Uh, just get one without the moonroof. Use the $1000 to get the TRD exaust system and cold air intake! I'm 6' and have plenty of headroom in my moonroofless XRS and I need alot of headroom!

Jedi, I am 6' and have plenty of head room in my XRS, I find if you drop the seat right down there is more than enough because it also changes the angle of the seat cushion. Check it out. If you are looking for a good deal on one send me a pm.
