how small actually is it? would a 6ft 3 guy with size 14 feet like myself fit into the car and have room at the pedals?

I'm 6.2"and weigh 206 pounds my shoe size is 12, I am more then comfortable driving the car.

It did take some getting used to,getting in and out of it. there is a very helpful video on YouTube showing how to get in and out of the car easily.

The Elise is a lot smaller than the Boxster and does have a harsher ride than the Boxster as well but does handle and brake better than the Boxster.

The Elise isn't for everyone, if you look down and can't see your belt-buckle you will be uncomfortable in An Elise.
