For driver or passengers?

[mnc]

should be enough for you

But there are other things you need to take into consideration. How is your seating position like?
Are you the granny seating position type where you sit full straight?
or are you the full muzza style with your seat fully down so your head is at the rear side windows?

You could always get super low rails to make more clearance but im 100% sure you will fit without any issues. =]

drivers, but passengers in the back would help too

i like it a little bit down but not fully straight and not so that i have to stretch to reach the steering wheel
mm how much are low rails?

[mnc]

Your best bet is to go test one out. =]

And for passengers in the back. If they are your height, I dont think it would be comfortable for them at all.

I am 192cm and I fit in a DC5R with no issues, the steering wheel is a little far away though. Maybe I just have short arms though. If you want to wear a helmet you might have issues though, to avoid this I got an HKS Kansei lowered seat rail.

Sitting in the rear is very uncomfortable for me, my head practically touches the rear glass and there is very little leg room.

Yup for 6ft the rear is horrid.The rear glass is too slanted

Also the dc5 cabin feels cramped for me being 6ft

Something about it feels awkward

As above though,go sit in both and see how you feel

Thanks guys for the quick replies
I think i should be fine in the drivers seat but in the rear seats it will be a problem
However not likely to be back their anyways being my car xP
Thanks again guys. Just final thing how much would seat rails cost ?

Around $150-250 each I think. Vision are at the lower end of the scale (in my opinion) and should be less than 200, whereas my HKS Kansei rail was $240.

I'm 200cm or so and I can definately tell you that the headroom of DC5R at the front (I dont know about EP3R) is more than enough, no matter what position the seat. I dont know about the back, cause I've never sat in the back of my own car before... I should try it one day! LOL

The whole car itself is quite spacious (sit in a DC2 or S15 for example and you'll see/feel the difference.... the DC2 and S15 is too "cosy" for taller people haha). I actually reckon Honda did a very good job with this :)

I'm only 176 plenty of head room/leg room front. Passengers told me it was roomy in the back as well and I've got long legs so not too sure about the person behind me. Lots of room in the rear until you cram a extra person thought I give it a go one night thinking it was like the eu with seating for 3 in the back, tight but it fitted 3 skinny adults. Last time I was in a dc5r headroom at the back was pretty low and cramped
