If you're looking for gas mileage, look elsewhere...
Be warned.
These things are not very efficient.
Typical city driving will reward you with about 15mpg.
With a turbo engine, it'll go down faster - 10-12mpg is not uncommon on higher powered set-up's.
Add freeway driving, and gas mileage should shoot up.
Don't expect 30's though - 20-25mpg is more realistic.
There are tricks to getting gas mileage #'s like this.
I'm 6'1" and don't have too much trouble getting in and out of the car.
If you go racing and require a helmet, then it's a whole nother ballgame.
For proper seating position and comfort, be prepared to go with an aftermarket steering wheel + hub + spacer.
I've found that a 2" spacer + aftermarket steering wheel makes it a lot more comfortable ride.
My inseam is about 31".
Most FC's come with generous tilt adjustment for your comfort.
