Question Distance to clutch vs accelerator/brake - 2019 MX-5

I purchased a 2019 MX-5 RF in November and have an issue with the reach to the clutch pedal, in particular. I'm 5'3" and, in my experience, I find that the clutch pedal, when not being used, sits closer to me than the does the accelerator/brake pedals. And when depressed, it goes farther than the other pedals. This means my legs are bent differently, I have to hike my left knee toward me and stretch it completely, including pointing my toe a bit, to depress the clutch. My first (and previous favorite) car was a 1985 RX-7 and I remember all the pedals being kind of level with each other. I also like to drive without my knees bent too much and have a shorter "throw" in the clutch. Is there any way to adjust this so that the clutch doesn't come up so high or need to go so far past the acc/brake?
