I'm 6.0" and I put the seat as far back and low as it will go. I have long legs and a long upper body so honestly, it can't sit low enough for me. I have it just about right where it is now, but if the seat could lean back a few more inches I would have it there. I dunno why, but the car fits me better that way.
When I race, I use a Momo non-adjustable raceing seat in my Talon. It sits you pretty straight up, so the bracket I made to keep the seat in the car puts it really low as my helmet needs to clear the roof and door when I'm getting out of the car. I prefer to sit up so I can bang gears better, gives me better leverage.
If you look at this pic you can see my helmet is damn close to the roof.
