Default Head room in coupe

I currently own an '02 EX V6 coupe, and will probably get an "05 coupe this weekend - is it just my imagination, or does the headroom in the 7th gen. coupes seem less? I'm 6'3" and the fit seems a little tight. How do other taller drivers feel? I know that the moonroof takes up room, but an LX is not an option. Thanks!

I'm 6 feet tall, and have TONS of headroom leftover in my 03 Accord Coupe. What cracks me up when people talk about headroom is that they always say "I'm 7 feet tall and have plenty of headroom." or "I'm 5 feet tall and feel cramped". Folks, it's all about how long your TORSO is. My brother and I are the same height, only I am all LEGS and he is all BODY. So I have tons of headroom and he has very little.

Try lowering the seat.

Maybe it's because the seat is new. Grab a tape measure if you want to compare.

I would hope the seat doesn't sag so much that you get a noticable difference in headroom. h:
