I'm 6'2" and i fit just fine, even with a helmet, but as someone mentioned furter up, spacing out the steeringwheel probably isn't a bad idea. + i don't have a sunroof, i imagine that if i had a sunroof i would have trouble sitting in the car with a helmet.

My FC has a stock S4 NA engine, i daily drive and i get a steady 20mpg, have seen 24mpg but not often. That's probably one third city driving and the rest highway(or the Norwegian version anyway, many hills and turns), and i don't try to get low mpg.

All US-spec "Turbo II" models have standard sunroofs, so we have no say. :P
We lose about 20mm - 30mm due to the stupid sunroof assembly.
I absolutely do not fit properly with a racing helmet and stock seat.
