I'm right around 6 foot in a 1997 boxster base. I sit very comfortable and still have some room to scoot the seat back. However i like to sit a little closer so that I can get the clutch all the way down with no difficulty.

I'm 6' 2" no problem with head room. There is still 2-3 inches of clearance. Leg room for me is right where I like it but with the seat all the way back. I like close so it fits me.
My son at 6' 3" hates the passenger seat because it can't lean back. But then again who would like being a passenger in a Porsche

I have a 97 and opted for a Tip over the manual. I wish the steering wheel tilted, instead of telescoping. I'm 6' and I have to hold my leg at an awkward angle to the side to manually shift. I can do it, but it is not optimal.
