Thinking about a seat mod for tall guys, need some suggestions

I hate to lose a Corvette buddy but if it was me and I couldn't get a good fit in a Vette ... I would consider a CTS-V
Recaro driving seats are an option in the CTS-V Coupe, providing good support for enthusiastic driving. The seats are 14-way adjustable and have pneumatic side bolsters in the cushion and backrest.

Didn't you all love the earlier post on how "do you get into your car, do you seat and swing in or jump in?" It was easy to tell how all the short guys were.

update
Hi Guys,
I am in the market for a sports car and the c6 seems to be the best bang for the buck!
I am 6' 8" 315 lbs and 25 years old.
I was able to "fit" but very tight and could use more room all the way around.
Looking for an update on the OP or if anyone else has any ideas!
As things are now I probably could not have this for a DD. Do you guys think if I drop down to 250 lbs and modded the seat or replace I would fit better or is it going to be tight no mater what?
This is my 1st post so let me know if i should start a new thead or just keep this one going.
Thanks
David

This gives me about an inch plus on the inside with the seat all the way down.

Safety Car
Try removing the dead pedal. I am not over 6' but I removed the dead pedal to do some interior changes. I drove the car for 2 weeks without the dead pedal. I know it sounds funny but I almost left it out because of the added leg room. Try it. It only takes a few minutes to remove it.
