Head room, 6-series less than the 1er

jraymond · 01-20-2008, 05:37 PM

I know we are starting to beat this topic to death like we did pricing since it is still somewhat of an uknown still....BUT...I did just notice that a 6 series is actually .3 shorter than the 1's headroom at 37.6 inches. Of course everthing else about the car is bigger but, I think I'm going to head to the dealer and sit...that should give me very good piece of mind if it is a non-issue. :wink:

Also, I have sat in a M coupe at 37.3 and I really felt that was to short. I'm 6'5 and have an average torso.

I am 6'5" and fit very well in the 135i. This is from the IAA Frankfurt show where it was first shown. I have about 3 inches yet of headroom when my seat is adjusted.

Sooo many tall people here. Time for a glass of milk.

Sometimes height is a curse....i.e. trying to fit in small cars.

This is great, I am 6'8-6'9 and was curious how I would fit.
