Default V8 Vantage question

Hi guys ! I have a question for V8 vantage owners: What happens to tall people that would like to purchase a V8? I had the oportunity to sit inside a DB9 a year or so back at a car show. I had trouble with my knees, and i felt very tight inside. Is the V8 more ergonomical and spacious than the DB9? Although i doubt that i must ask you guys.

Thanks

Nope - Smaller in every way, check out the official website for full tech specs and sizes.

I find the V8 more comfortable than the DB9....maybe it is just me!

The seating position is better.

Yeah the V8 Vantage is smaller than the DB9. I would not get into a car like that if you are taller than 6 feet 3 inches cause it can be tight.
