    I'm 6'3 and cannot get comfortable in my 488 Spider with racing seats. I was reasonably comfortable in my 488 GTB. My Spiders for sale because of that very reason. Wish I would have know before switching to the spider.

    I'm 6'6 and ferrari is the only supercar brand I can easily fit into. My head hits the ceilings on Mclarens unless they have race seats, and in Lambo's my knees hit steering wheel and I can't even sit fully upright. However, on 488/458 or pretty much any modern Ferrari I can fit just fine, I don't even need racing seats. I have fully electric seats in my 488 and fit great in driver seat (although passenger seat is not comfortable as my legs don't have enough room, but I never sit in passenger anyway so who cares there)

    Ferrari is by far the most spacious brand of supercars, even though I wish I would have purchased a v10 Hurracan as I liked the car better than my 488 and the Hurracan was considerably cheaper(between the two cars I I was looking at there was an 80k delta)... But I didn't really have a choice as 488 was the only supercar that I could comfortably fit inside.

    Everyone is different, but with my current build (skinny- super long legs, and long torso) I could probably be up to 6"10 and fit in my 488 no problem.

    Ferrari is truly the tall mans supercar!

    PS- I'm a coupe guy and never tried sitting in a spider, from what I hear spiders give less room.
