New beetle.... A few years ago, there was a segment on NPR about cars for "those that are taller when sitting" (really, it was just for tall/big people). The winner - the New Beetle... It's a wonder why they didn't include that in those arch commercials from way back
But all that said... it's really not the outer dimensions of the car (for the most part).
It's the interior design. I mean, the Hummer H2 is freaking huge - but the interior is cramped.... I owned a Mazda 626 a few years ago - my top half barely fit, but I had awesome knee room... Take the seats out of a neon - I'll bet just about everyone can say - ya, with a proper seat - I'd fit in here. 2008 Gallardo - "There is headroom enough for a mid-six-footer. It's easier to get into and out of than a Viper or even a Corvette" - and that's a short car
