Default How Big
I'm considering buying a vw for the fuel mileage but I don't know if I'll fit in the car. I'm 6'6" and well most German engineers aren't. So how tall is too tall for a vw?

The beetles have the most leg & head room in them. As mentioned, the way the seats adjust, you'll do ok. I think you'll find the beetle the roomiest.

My dad is an entomologist so there is no way I would drive a beetle home.
