C4 or C5 Interior Space
Just a quick question, I have a local buyer for my 84 C4 and when he took my car for a drive he said the C4 was roomier then the C5. Said there was lots more leg room? I never sat in a C5 but I always thought they would have more space. This guy was big to looks to be 250lbs. Just curious.
Thanks

C5 is larger in every aspect. More cargo area, wider footwell, not necessarily longer.

maybe he thought the later c4s are c5s 
? 1990 they moved the speakers to the floor when they redesigned the interior. 84-89 has a ton more leg room then 90-96. but 97-04 has way more then all of em.

The way I see it, the C5 is like getting into your daddy's Buick compared to the C4. The C4 is like getting into a fighter type jet while the C5 is like a transport jet; both are fast and get the job done. One more try at this, you get into a C5, but you strap a C4 on your back.
