Radiator Fluid Overflow

How much fluid should be in the resavoir for the radiator overflow? Mine has about 2 inches and my brother-in-law said that it needed some added. Of course, he is used to American cars.

I've got an 05 MCS, when the engine is cold the fluid is between the min. and max. mark. If you put anymore in there you might get some overflow.
