Instead of endless speculation, I suggest you and your hubby attend a Pantera event, approach one of the owners and ask if hubby can 'try the car on for size'. This happens all the time at events and seldom do you find an owner so tight-jawed that one cannot sit in his car. This is how we decided my 6'2" friend should forget about the Lambo Miura and instead buy a Mangusta.... which he did. After you've tried on a few cars with different seats, you'll get a feel for the problem, if any. Good luck.
