My main concern isn't really about the roof height but about the windshield top edge.

When I'm stoped at a red light, I can't see the light without going into some contortion.

OK...I'm driving with the seat in a very straight position but the seat height adjustment is all way down. Like QuickSilverDon said, it goes ridiculously high but doesn't down so much.
My seat is only slightly reclined from straight up. Too far back or too straight and my back gives me problems. I do have problems with the lights here too since we've got those stupid cable-mounted lights so I just stop wherever I can see the lights without needing to slump over the steering wheel like a drunk to see them.

Really the only thing I can complain about for comfort is shoulder room. Driving normally and my left shoulder is resting on or close to the "B" pillar.
