I'm not sure if I want this or not, but it's fairly interesting and no doubt the craftsmanship is pretty impressive.... A 1990 Mazda Miata, modified with box flared arches. I actually kinda like the bodywork, but it's a shame the colour is so gopping awful. Not really a fan of the exhaust setup either, and the transformers badge on the nose would definitely have to go.

Not that hard, I mean there is no roof.

It's worth mentioning I am a brit and therefore the roof will only be open once per decade.

I'm 6'2" and I felt like I had another 1/2" of space before I was uncomfortable. It depends where you get your height from (torso or legs). This was on a stock miata but you can mod the seats and gain plenty of room from what I hear.

You'd want to mod the gas pedal to gain an inch or so of leg room, a new seat bolted to the floor would also help if you wanted to be able to fit with the top up. I'm 6'1 and fit decently well in my NB, it's what I'd call a snug fit, like putting the car on instead of getting into it. If you are unwilling to put a new seat bolted to the floor then a foamectomy would help you a little bit, but sadly I don't think that there is hope getting you to fit with a helmet under a roll bar. See if you can find a friendly Miata driver to let you sit in their car to try it out and see if you can find it comfortable. Also search Miata.net for the "tall guy mods" that should help out a bit.

Very difficult. I am 6'4" and cannot turn the steering wheel in U.S. spec miatas because of my knees. Go to the nearest dealer and sit in one to make sure you can fit.

I'm 6'3" and my eyes were level with the top of the windscreen in the NC I sat in. I might have had the seat poorly adjusted though.

I'm 6'1" and have no issues, even hooning around the track with no comfort or space problems. I have even seen a 275+ lbs midget have no problem jamming himself between the seat and steering wheel.
