Anyone worried about not fitting in the car?

^ ditto, 6'3" = 190cm fit in snug (85kg)

btw Rod, did you find you had a lot of head room or only a bit? Slightly concerned about headroom for helmet...

The manual mode shifter is quite notchy as expected from a sports car.

I've driven both. Drove the Auto first (GTS) and thought to myself, wow, this is excellent. I could certainly live with this.
Then I drove the manual (GT) and I thought - there is no way in hell I am getting an Auto.

6'4" here, 95kgs. Found it very comfy. Will probably have slight issues wearing a helmet when on track.

Hey Guys

And im taking the car for a test drive tomorrow but i have sat in it 3 times now

one inch at most, but I do not plan to track it so helmet is not a concern,

also depends on how much recline you got going on the seat,

One thing, while I didn't drive it, I pressed the clutch and it doesn't feel like its there (compared to my 8)
Also the 1st thing I will do is a shorter height shifter as this one sits higher than I like (looks about higher than the stock 8 one wrt to the console)
The exhaust tips are HUGE (good huge but).. Pics don't do them justice, as you can't comprehend how small this car is

man clutch is so damn light i thought i was going to stall it so many times i just let it go and buried the pedal to get it off the line lol.

also you tall guys probably already did this but did you guys drop the seat down? i was playing around with the leavers on the seats and it got down real low felt good being so low

Yer had to put the seat to its lowest position. Personally I didnt feel like I was seated on the ground but still an improvement over most cars.

yea but im closer to the ground than you lol
