Did you do the 'elbow' test (elbow on the door frame w/the window down)? That is usually a fair indicator of placement for automotive ergonomics.

Seems like plenty of headroom - a full hand width between the top of my noggin and the roof. Of course, the headliner will reduce that some. I'll have to hang a door for a more accurate test but using the "air door" technique, it seems fine. My problem with these older model cars are the traffic signals. I end up hunching down and leaning forward to see if the light is still red. Or, at my age, waiting for someone to honk behind me.
