Looking for a car (Honda?) with plenty of headroom and legroom

I'm looking for a used car to buy, possibly a 5-10 year old
Honda, and I'm wondering if anyone here can tell me about the
headroom and legroom in the various models/years. I'm 6'4" with
long legs and have been having a terrible time finding a car that
fits me. Any recommendations, including non-Honda, will be
greatly appreciated. Thanks.

A two door Civic should fit nicely. Back in 1998 when I was shopping for
a low price car, I practically sat in every automobile at the auto show
to determine which had the best seating position for my 6'1 frame which
has a very wide back. The two door Civic felt the best and was only
beaten by the high end 4 door luxury sedans (almost all the Merecedes
felt 'right', while seated in the driver seat..unlike the Audi's). It's
intresting that I would become fatiqued on my $2000 leather recliner but
can last all day in my Civic Hatch without any problem.

I am also 6'4" and long of leg. My '90 CRX lets me stretch my legs completely
out in the normal driving position..

Ditto as Pars and Rex B say. I'm 6'3 with a 93 Civic HB. I do fine but watch
out for sun/moon roofs. They really cut down on the headroom.

Thanks Pars, Rex, and John for the suggestions. The sun/moon
roof seems to be the breaker. Out of dozens of cars I've "test
sat", I found one Honda ('94 Accord) without the sun roof and
felt comfortable inside. Leg room was adequate, too.
Unfortunately that particular car was not one I'd want to buy.
But at least I know there's a car out there for me somewhere.
Thanks again.
