I tried one out at a dealers a few years ago. at 6'2", I couldn't move the steering wheel after I had wedged myself into the car. My 5'-and-a-bit wiffe found it fine.

i've had 2 mx5s - the last one for 6 years and it's pretty trick.
cajun, if you want to get a big HP little convertible, there's a HUGE mx5 cult - rotaries, ford 5 litre V8s, superchargers, turbos etc, and people have been doiing it for 12 years...
personally - i LOVE the cap. the roof is great - much better than the mx5
i've driven a couple and i'm 6'2 and 100 kilos.
It's really different. i just think you've already got a huge community in the badass mx5 group, places like flying miata in the states, racing beat, rod millen, mazdaspeed etc etc - and you're on your own with the cap.
STILL - i'm dead keen to see you do it.
