5'7". I fit great. I try to make myself feel taller by having the seat pushed all the way to the back.

I'm 6'0" 200 Lbs & I fit into my TL perfectly....Though I never rode in my back seat, I did sit back there and it would be ok for a two hour ride I guess. My hair was touching the headliner, but it was comfortable. I like the front alot better

I'm 4'10" & it's a very comfortable ride for me. Like any car, the seat belt cuts across my neck a bit, but it's a little better than most cars.

5'6.......540lbs. I've got butt print issues with my seats...Acura sucks.....they use cheap leather. Richard Simmons agreed to help me with my claim...he said it's just discrimination...and Acura should pay. I'd never buy another Acura.

I was about to calculate the average height from TLers on this forum, but then I saw the 11 pages of height calculations. Screw that!

6' - 4" and fit fine. I bought the TL last weekend, and one of the main selling points for me was fit. I had to lean the seat way back in the Lexus IS, and hit my head on the side of the G35. With 2 in college, I wasn't willing to spend the money for the Inf M, Lexus GS, or BMW 530. On top of being a great value, and being real fun to drive, the fit sealed the deal for me. I couldn't believe it when I sat in the car and adjusted the seat....it just kept going down. Now I just need to find the time to learn how to work everything.

Damn I wanna see pictures of people, looks like about half the people in this thread could play either NBA or NFL. I am 6'0 200 pounds which seems decent size considering height and weight, but if we got all the people together on this thread I would be short. Maybe the thread title should have been "how short are you?" lol...

After having an 04 TL and an 01 CLs, the TL seats were definitely more comfortable and better leather. Although, the CL seats seem to hold you in better with greater side bolstering and have a slightly sportier feel.

EDIT: Couldn't help but noticing the TL roof seems to be about 3 inches higher than the CL's, plus the TL sunroof actually opens all they way

6'0", but long legs. I put the seat all the way back, and thankfully, the 08 TL has a telescoping steering wheel to put it closer to me. Overall, good fit for me.

size matters....

Just bought my 08 TL and love it. Im 6'4"+ about 235- long legs and broad shoulders. The room in the car is the first thing that really got me excited abot the TL. I looked at BMW 3 series and the infinity. nice cars but short on leg room and too narrow. I am very comfotable in this car and the seat is not all the way back even.
