Replying to: discount80 (May 29, 2008 8:20 am) I'm 6'4" too, and I just bought a 2009 Murano SL yesterday with the dual moonroof package which reduces headroom by 1.8". No problem at all. I took it for a long test drive and I was very comfortable. I think that despite the reduced headroom the sunroof makes it feel more open and even though there is less room it reduces any feeling of claustraphobia, so there's probably a psychological thing going on there. Actually, what I was more concerned about was the ingress/egress (getting in and out) because I always found that to be more of a problem with my height. My last car was an Acura CL which was a coupe and the extra big door made it very easy to get in and out of. Much easier than the previous 4 door sedans I've owned. But I found that getting in and out of the 2009 Murano was no problem either, and I think it's due to the fact that it has a rather small steering wheel.

Replying to: discount80 (May 29, 2008 8:20 am) I am 5'2" and hubby is 6'4". The headroom works for both of us. What we miss is memory seats, not available in our FWD SL with every other option. How stupid that they left that out.

Replying to: discount80 (May 29, 2008 8:20 am) I'm 6'4" with an '09 Murano SL with moon roof. My head is close to the roof but not uncomfortably so. While I can drive with the seat all the way back, I actually bring it forward about an inch so leg room is not a problem. The main thing I notice is the seats are kinda short and don't support the weight of my legs as much as I'd like. Replies to this message: sabaurc (Jun 25, 2008 6:12 pm) wendek (Aug 14, 2008 2:01 pm)

Replying to: bradpennock (Jun 11, 2008 11:49 am) Just got mine the other day. I am 6'7 and I have plenty of room. Traded in an Expedition and I really don't notice any difference room wise, I just don't sit up as high. Replies to this message: wendek (Aug 14, 2008 2:01 pm)

6'7 and 260lbs, no problems with the S Model I sat in, plenty of head room and leg room, good fit left and right of the seat.

I have read through the messages so far and I am awe-struck as to how do folks beyond 6'1" find it all so comfortable especially getting in & out the car? Doesn't your right knee get stuck behind the steering wheel?   I am 6'1" and the reason I ditched a sedan was the problem I faced while getting in and getting out the car. I would much rather get-in and get-out from my vehicle rather than sit-into and stand-up-from my transport!! Ofcourse I have adequate head room and legroom but the Murano is a great fit for my long legs especially when going in & out of the SUV. The elevated seating (as comapred to a car) makes all the difference for me ... Replies to this message: alanpgh (Oct 11, 2008 9:01 am)

Replying to: rovingeye (Oct 11, 2008 8:18 am) Yes! Yes! Yes!   I am almost 6'3", and the Murano was by far the best fit for me! Great leg room and adjustable gas/brake pedals make all the difference for me   The car of cars!

Replying to: discount80 (May 29, 2008 8:20 am) I'm 6'2" and love the height of my 09 SL with dual moonroof etc. I was carpooling with another driver, and after 90 minutes of traffic, I could barely stand up after climbing out of her tiny mazda 3 - took me a minute to stretch out my back again every time.   We used to have an Impreza - moving our little kid in and out of his carseat was giving me back problems too. With the Murano, no more! )   My wife is 5'5" and the memory system on the power seat (and mirrors) would definitely have been very nice to have. I'm just worried about wearing out the mechanism every time we switch (which is daily).
