Yes, try the Beck spyder as Tiemco suggested. No idea how the fit would be. You wouldn't have to worry about the windshield being in the way. A modern shelby cobra clone might be worth testing too. You could look for old-styled cars with options brooklands windscreens if the windshield is the primary problem.
I have an E-type roadster and am 6'1" Same deal with looking through the top of the windshield. Somehow I forget about that minor problem once I'm driving though and listening to and feeling the monster straight-6.
A Saab turbo convertible is a fun and roomy. You could get a used viggen convertible for the price of a Beck or Mazda. You could probably get a boxster-s or M-roadster for a similar price too. If you want the $50k range, look for the Ariel atom or Lotus elise.
