Let me ask you this... How is the car to get into/out of? I ask because as another 6'2 individual; I find that alot of the modern German sedans have an issue that by the time I get the seat to be far enough away from the pedals and the steering wheel close enough to me to be comfortable, I have to act like a contortionist to slide into/out of the car. My 2018 Audi is this way and the BMW was similar. The corvette with it's deep foot well is actually easier to get in to and out of than the Audi. It is really bad when I am holding something in my hand (like a cup of coffee and/or a small bag) because I am afraid I am going to bump my hip on the steering wheel and risk spilling my coffee.
Remember though that this is a TWO door so it might be a lot easier to enter and exit than a sedan with shorter doors maybe?

I like the E-class or larger...don't like the C's (except one) B's (non-US model), or A's.The only C I like is the GLC (f/k/a GLK).
The two door "sport" coupes/'verts (SL's) are nice.

Oh yeah, before I forget: the Burmeister 3D optional sound system is the BEST I've ever heard. I have the Bose in the Z (not good), the Bang & Olufsen in the Audi (not bad) and the Harmon Kardon in the Range Rover (previous best factory system I'd heard).
The Burmeister is more powerful. I can't prove it's cleaner or better, but the amp and sub are very powerful, and I was unable to run the system into distortion at a volume I could tolerate, which is a first for me!
