I drove a spec miata onto a trailer for some older gentleman I use to autocross with (He brought the car to an event to test something on it.) He was about 6'3", I'm 6'2...Fit perfectly in that car with more headroom than the FRS... because racecar with racecar seats and gutted permanently mounted hardtop. Someone 6'2" can easily fit comfortably in a properly prepared track miata...

For me there are two options I'd go with for an inexpensive track car that is a hoot to drive:

NA Mazda Miata or an Acura Integra RS... I had a 2nd Gen Integra RS that was a riot to drive and had slight oversteer tendancies.... that B18 motor makes nice sounds too. I'd prefer the miata due to RWD and liking going through the gears way better than with the Honda's - I've never liked the Integra's or CRX's shifting feel...just yuck...
