I know there is a lot of room in a C5, but where do they all sit?

Maybe they figure that since they're showing four 'vettes there, they can seat 8 people?

I agree with above except for the dual power seats. My 99 has dual power seats. I was surprised when I bought it and noticed that.

Well... I know a Corvette can hold 5 for sure.

When I was a kid back in the early 80's, my mom/dad would take myself, and 2 brothers out for a cruise in the 81 vette. Dad driving, Mom pass seat, and us 3 in the rear trunk laid out flat facing forward. A few years ago I asked my mom how safe that really was. She said it was not really something thought about back then. If we had a head on collision we would have all shot out the front windshield like 3 torpedo's !

If a frat can fit 16 people in a phone booth, you can surely fit 8 in a Corvette.
