Does the bubble roof actually have more interior headroom?

Looks like a killer $200k track car for sure. Really wonder how many will really use it for that--but no DD for sure.

I'll stick with my GT3.

However, looking forward to the "A dealer is charging $50k over list for RS" threads LOL.

Huh. Pretty cool. For all those big brained people. Ha ha.

Most small brained ones couldn't afford the car.

yeah, I can't fit into any Lamborghini but fit comfortably into a 458, so I ordered a Speciale. also I couldn't fit into P1, which is a bummer, but oh well... as long as I keep fitting into Porsches, I have nothing to complain about

Alot of the Germans are tall so I'm sure that plays into it.

I'm 5'8" and felt like a midget when I visited there.

Out of curiosity, which exotics have more room and which tend to be really tight in space?

I know a few got mentioned.

A lot of the mid engine "roofless" are kind of small because of convertible top! Think Lambo Gallardo , Audi R8 spider and Ferrari 458 convertible! I actually had my eye line right on the top frame in the Gallardo spider!!! 6.2 with a long torso. I even struggled in 458 Italia with helmet on. No problem in 997rs. But on the other hand had no problem in Ferrari 360 CS!
