I think it’s all a matter of perspective; I’ve crammed myself into sports cars that are a bit worse than the 570 and still enjoyed them. So I’m kinda used to a snug cockpit. Certainly not a car appropriate for GT use, if you’re big... and helmet clearance will be an issue for anyone at 6’ 2 or taller, I think.
