I (6'5") actually sold my NA a couple of months ago. I could just fit in it and my knees were at 4:00 and 8:00 next to the wheel (not touching it at least). The only reason I sold it is because it wasn't my daily driver and money has gotten very tight. So glad I learned to drive manual with it and then enjoy it for a few more years.
I miss it dearly :(
Oh also it was definitely a death trap for someone of my height. That roll bar would not have saved me.
Coworker of mine was about your height. Whenever we traveled I would mess with the seat arrangement so I would get aisle and he would get center and he would ask me to switch. Eventually he figured out I was doing on purpose and he didn't let me book seats for him anymore.
I fucking love that 5'8 life, the world is built for me. I can reach every top shelf but nobody ever asks me to get them something from up there. I fit in every plane or car or train seat. Being average height (in my country at least) is amazing.
