I even did the cottage trip once in my '88 Porsche 944 that I used to have. If a finicky, 30-year-old German sports car with 200k, a broken temp gauge, broken e-brake, bad 2nd gear synchro, and no A/C can make that trip with no issues, your nearly-new Japanese car should have no issue at all.
Keep in mind that I'm almost 6'6 as well, and I actually find this car to be quite comfortable on long trips, with a few stops to stretch out my legs of course.

On the weekend I made a spontaneous trip to Virginia no problem lol... Just have a quiet exhaust and the car eats up the miles nicely!
