I'm about 6'4. I have my seat lowered as far as the power seat will allow. Still feel at times I'm sitting up too high. Any suggestions on how to lower my driver seat any further? Would be nice to not feel like my heads about to touch the ceiling all the time! Lol
 
I have a 2000 LX470. I'm not sure how the adjustments differed throughout the years, but my driver seat is adjustable in all directions. I am 6' 5" and I have plenty of head room and don't even have my seat down all the way. On mine, the adjustment knob on the door side of the seat that moves the seat forward and back... Push that same knob(the entire knob) up and down to adjust the seat height.
 
I removed my dead pedal and I have to say its one of my favorite mods to date, can stretch the leg out nicely, plus I cut down on some weight at the same time ;)
 
I am 6'8" and I wish there was a way to lower the seat even further, but I haven't come across anyone who has done that.
 
Thanks guys. Don't get me wrong, I have room, just would be nice to be a little lower. Just the way it was designed I guess.
 
At 6'3" I don't have headroom issues, and I tend to like being close to the wheel. What drives me nuts is how shallow the seat bottoms are, and how little thigh support I can generate within the adjustment range of the seat.

I'd like to have the back of the seat bottom a bit lower and the front of the seat bottom an inch or two higher.
 
Your issues may be depending upon how vertical you like to sit.
You could be 9' tall if you don't mind driving horizontal. Personally I like my seat as vertical as possible with it lowered all the way, I'm 6'-0". These other 6 foot plus guys may have the seat backs reclined to some degree or another thus allowing them to be comfortable.
