I am contemplating getting either a C7 A6 or A7. I have always loved the look of the A7 but have not had an opportunity yet to go check one out. My question here is being a Mercedes-Benz Master Technician I am wondering if this vehicle is like the CLS where you have to duck a ridiculous amount to get in and out of the car. I am 6'4 and the CLS is just ridiculous for a tall guy. Looking at the A7 it actually looks like the roof is not so chopped like a CLS is but figured i might see if anyone out there has done the comparison between an A6 or A7 and has any insight on this. Thanks.

It’s not bad for height in the front seat - but it does have headroom issues in the back seat. Your biggest challenge may be how low-slung the front seats are; it can feel like getting into a 911!

I'm 6'3 240, 58 yrs old with bad football knees and getting in and out doesn't present any problem. The CLS greenhouse is really chopped by the roofline. I had to duck to get in it.

The rear is quite different, you'd have to duck for sure.
