Intouch, I can understand some of the complaints (overspray is something I would not tolerate), as for the set up of the car (switches, mirrors and pedals)...don't forget the one simple fact, this is a reproduction (all the good and most of the bad) of a car from 1965. It wasn't designed with driver comfort in mind, it was designed to go fast and it does that part well.
As for the brakes, I intially had some issues with my brakes also (soft pedal), but after bleeding the brakes, adding 150 rpms to my idle, I was able to get a firmer pedal. It's not like my wifes M3, but guess what, I adapted to what the car is and drove it as such.
Final thought, enjoy the car. Be very careful also, bang a lower gear and the rear tires can lock up, snap oversteer is just a hick-up away with 500hp and you are already aware of the fact the pedals ofset and close proximity can make a speed shift into a 80 mph brake lock up (did that once at the track, good lord did I crap myself). So, go slow, take some track days to explore the cars handling, accelerating and braking and you'll discover all the good...and bad traits of the car. Most of all...have fun.
