... I'm 6' 3" , how hard is it going to be for me to fit into a 99 C-5 ?

TX-Techman

I suggest you start shopping and do some test drives. You will be much happier with a C-5 or later, the C-4 is a bear to get in and out of.

72,77 & 79 were hell on my knees. I'm getting really excited for my 99...should have it in a week...Thanks for your response...comforting to say the least

I'm 6'2" and fit with a helmet on pretty easily.

Crosis

I am 6-02 and cant fit in a C3. I cant even imagine how you squeezed into one.

Vetteman Jack

If I read you right, you bought a C5 without seeing it or at least getting into one? Sure hope it all works out for you. At 6'3", you should fit though.

I'm only 5-10, but I was amazed at how much leg room there was in my 03 the first time I sat in it. I'm eager to hear what it's like for someone who's 6-3.

Curt Scheibel

It was pure hell on my knees but made up for it in ego!!! LOL Thanks for you reply ! Safe Motoring!!!!

Curt Scheibel

Hopefully I'll be polishing it next week. I'll let you know about the fit...THANKS !!

Curt Scheibel

That's great to hear....I'm willing to put up with a bit of discomfort...won't be wearing a "hat" anytime soon though!! LOL! Thanks for getting back to me!

At my height everything is a tight squeeze , be it clothing , cars...or whatever...Just as long as it's not as claustrophobic as my C-3's were ,
My knees were on the dash and I kind of got used to slouching a bit...Maybe not this time aye? Thanks for your response. FYI-I live in Page , Arizona , on the Arizona Utah border. We have to shop out of town a lot cause being a small town not all things are available here so at times ya have to do it over the net. We don't even have mail delivery here. For me to test drive a car it would be at least 200 miles before I was in a major town and that's Flagstaff. So...some times we take chances. Being a previous owner of vettes I've always stayed aware of what's happening in the Corvette world so I know a little about what I'm looking for.... Great car, great people...1999 Vette, White , Light Oak Interior , 51,000 miles..

I'm 6' 2" and 250 lbs. I drive an 03 Z06. I could use a little more head room but a little slouch goes a long way. I've done 12 hr days in this car no problem. Depends on how you're built. (Long legs, long torso)

Spend some time adjusting the seat to find the sweet spot. The key for me is the power seat base tilt. I lower the rear to give me head room and I raise the front to support my thighs.

People have asked me to get into the car so they can see how I "fold up" only to be surprised by how much room I have. Enjoy the car.

I'm 6' 2.5" and 270 pounds and fit in comfortably.

Verrückt ZR1

6'4" here, and somewhere in the neighborhood of 270lbs. I actually find my '04 Z quite spacious, all things considered. There's no way that a racing helmet is going to work though.

jhopper408

I'm 6 Foot One. No problem!

Here's an image for ya. I'm 5' 10" and with the seat all the way back and my butt firmly against the back of the seat, the pedals are a bit of a reach. In that position I can NOT get the clutch all the way to the floor.

57hardtop

6'3" and Love it once I am in its the getting in and out. But wouldn't change a thing. I even move the seat a little forward.
