Default Tall people i have a question?

What do you all drive? Im 6'5" and i can't find anything i fit in well enough ( at least with a manual). And im just looking for ideas right now. I want a Honda/Acura, Toyota/Lexus/Scion or Subaru.
the only three that have worked for me are.

*05 Legacy (Tiptronic)
*00 Audi S4 Quattro ( No way i can afford the insurance)
*03 Tacoma 4cyl 4x4
So give me ideas, before my Blaser explodes.

I'm 6'3 1/2'' and I drive a 5 speed 01 civic coupe...i don't have any trouble fitting in it. that inch and a half you got on me must make a huge difference.

I don’t no what it is I am a big guy maybe its my feet maybe I just have fat thighs, I guess I should clarify the steering wheel is what kills me. I don’t know. But I have yet to test out a Civic.

A buddy of mine is 6'6" and he has owned the following:

Sentra SER ('02 IIRC)
VW GTI 1.8t ('03)
Acura RSX Type S ('02)

He has never complained about lack of space and all have been manual transmissions. He is a slender guy, but I know his shoes are like a 17 or 18. He used to have to order them from Eastbay when we were in high school.
