it's different, but fits like a glove when you get used to it after a week or so. you never have to take your hand off the wheel. i love it.
you probably find the view through your rear view mirror is miserable with the top up--it's just the wrong angle no matter how you adjust it and you see the ground more than anything. lower seat rails would help, but i didnt bother.

its all attitude.
Im 6'1 and im happy/enthusiastic about how it fits, the only problem is seeing stop lights through the windshield bar.
I took a long trip with my brother who is about the same size, and he b*thces about being claustrophobic and wanted me to put he top down, even while it was raining.
I've heard/does anyone know?
Is the passenger seat smaller/fell smaller/less space than the drivers?

I'm about hte same height and build as you. At first (first couple drives, for about 5 minutes in the car), the room made me feel cramped, but I got over it very quickly. After the first few minutes of adjusting, and ever since then, I love how the car 'fits'

for me that was one of the selling points how it fit me like a glove. no more or no little. I guess it depends on your body type
so your body does not flop around during fast turns.
And in an accident, your body will bounce off the body of the car less, minimizing injuries.
It is All part of the REAL SPORT CAR EXPERIENCE. If you want to ride like you're sitting in your lazy chair you should buy a 'sporty' car NOT a s2k. [B]
