My Acura TSX has a moonroof, has 5.9" of ground clearance, and a 56.5" height. No headroom issues.
Sure, there are people taller than me, but do we really need more headroom considering most people slouch in their seats and are shorter?

I'm 5' 9" and when I have the seat adjusted were I like it my hair almost touches the moonroof in my Jetta Sportwagen. I can't wear a ballcap. The rear seat is not comfortable for an adult for more than about an hour.
In your TSX your feet are likely out in front of you and your rear passengers likely have their hips lower than their knees. People don't want to sit like that, they want to sit like they are sitting in a chair. Raising the seat height also allows more comfortable rear seating without needing to stretch the wheelbase of the car.
