Yes, at 6' 1" I would have to fold up to get in, but it would be worth the cramped feeling to give one a go. Now that you point this out though, it might not be very good for the mission described by the OP, at least for a six footer.

It would be cheaper to ship this car cross country than pay for the gas to drive it.

Toyopet cross country? I would race you in a Citroen 2CV if I thought it would make it over the Rockies....

If you find one to test fit, let me know how you make out! My only frame of reference is from the crazy-haired mechanic on Wheeler Dealers and a review I read several years back.

These are two different cars. I've driven my 190SL some distance, however I would rather drive a pagoda cross country, it has a lot more creature comforts and its just plain more Comfortable.

I did a 2600 mile West Coast trip in my Volvo 780 Bertone, it was a blast. My dream trip would be with a Citroen SM or Mercedes 500SEC.
