I'm only 5'7", so it's OK. It'll mostly be for my shortie cutie girlfriend (5'1").
I think Subaru's in general, with the exception of the SVX, doesn't have great thigh support. I find it lacking on the 00 Legacy.

For short trips and commuting, the Justy is a great little car. It only weighs 1,800 pounds, so the 3cyl is definitely adequate. It's nimble and surprisingly good in the snow. I put on $25 Sears-brand tires and it probably handles better than any other FWD car I've driven in snow.

How's the 3 cyl. with the A/C on?

Make sure you get it up to speed on the freeway. I didn't find out until late in day one of our two-day drive home that my Justy is very drafty. I don't know whether this is typical of Justys - mine has obviously had the AC condenser replaced with an aftermarket one, and it fits poorly. So that's where I suspect the draft is coming from. Anyway, above 50mph or so, the passenger footwell has a cold wind blowing through it.

That's a "feature". It's called the auxilary A/C when the main one fails.

My '93, in fantastic shape (really - it looks great) with only 87k miles on it was $750.

That's a stellar price. The $1100CDN is an OBO anyways, I'll have to see the condition to decide whether it's worth it.
