Default Need Width Measurement! Please help

Can someone please do me a huge favor and measure the width of their c6 or c6z06 corvette mirror to mirror? I am looking to purchase a new c6 or z06 but want to make sure it is going to fit in my 1 car garage.

Thanks in advance!
Matt

If your a tight fit the mirror fold in.

Yep, thats my plan!

Currently, my 08 Yukon is a tight fit but its only a matter of pushing a button to electronically fold in those mirrors. Too bad that new corvette's dont have electronically foldable mirrors

Seriously, is the Z06 wider at the mirrors than a standard C6?

As to the electric folding mirrors, I''ll be the only one to say, one less electronic gizmo is just fine with me. I do believe it's just one less thing to go wrong if I own the car for more than a couple years. jmo.
