6'4" and 250. 2002 tl-p

I agree with needing a little more head room. I usually have the sun roof panel open.
Sitting a bit lower would help as well as a telescopic wheel, the Altima has it it just makes sense.
At the same time it is a great ride.

Would she be able to drive the TL?

I'm 5'0" and we have a stick shift.. all the way up, all the way forward, but I can drive it

Any other short women driving a 6MT out there?

6'0. New owner of used TL (or is it other way around?)

How do you tall folks do it? My head brushes the sunroof seam, unless I move seat back, but then I have to straight-arm to reach the wheel. I prefer to have either arm bent, elbow on rest, hand on 8- or 4- o'clock of the wheel. I don't know if this is abnormal, but my sleeve (pit to wrist) is 19"

6'3 and I weigh 210. There's plenty of leg room, but my head brushes up against the roof of the car.

I agree with Narnia. I'm 5' 5'', raise the driver's seat to full height and am quite comfortable. I also wish the passenger seat could raise up.
