    Hey guys, haven't been on this forum in a while. The tire fell off my 02 GTP and that was the end of that car.

    I've been driving a Mazda protege 5 and I am sick of it lol. It's too boring to drive and it's rusting everywhere. I have the opportunity to buy a 2006 grand prix GT with 130,000 kms for 4000$.

    I'd love to get another grand prix, my only concern is the head room in the 04+ models. I'm 6'4 about 280 and had no problem fitting in my 02 GTP but I have heard the 04+ offer less room for taller drivers.

    Is there anyone around my height that drives an 04+ that can give me some info on this.

    Thanks in advance. Look forward to being part of the community again.

    I've sat in a bunch at work and never have an issue with headroom at 6'2ish.

    Every seat is different aswell with as they are customer cars.

    Yea I guess the only real test is to go sit in it. I'm sure I can fit comfortably considering I can fit in a protege 5. I just hope I don't have to lean back too far lol.
