C7 Dimensions
Out of curiosity, I Googled the dimensions of older Corvettes including the C1 and C3 to compare with the C7.
I was very surprised at what I learned. The C1 is almost identical in all dimensions other than height when compared with the C7. Believe that is also the case with the C3. The C7 has a noticeably longer wheelbase though.
Subjectively, I’d have thought the C7 was much larger. Appearances can be deceiving I guess. Don

Ouch. I’d assume you fold the mirrors when you put the car into the garage?? I would. Don

The last 2 SUV’s we bought, powered fold-in mirrors were a key feature that we were sure they had! Would be a smart option for the Vette, as 8 foot doors are one of the standard sizes!

Now I know why my 'old' soft C2 (1967) COVER fits my C7 so snugly !
