Try an Astir CS. Much better performance than either of these twin
ships. The cockpit is so roomy I used to set up a picnic when I got
hungry during cross-country flights. Lots of room for me and I'm 6' and
200lbs. There was spare movement on the rudder pedal adjustment etc.

Identical proportions - well same mass and length fits nicely in a Std
Cirrus, and Kestrel.

ASK21 and Grob 103 are also comfortable enough, if not neccessarily what
you are looking for.
