I'm the same size as the OP (6'4" @ 300#) and my head touches the roof. My biggest gripe is the trunk release button by my knee cap. Just get settled in and "ka-bump" up pops the deck lid. Have to get back out and shut it.
Yoga, LOL. I am athletic (although getting old!) and flexibility has never been one of my strengths. I decided to try yoga once upon a time but I couldn't even get into the starting positions before the real movements began! Ended up straining my back so no more stinkin' yoga... I have no problems getting in or out of my C7. That's no worse than my old lowered gen 4 Camaro. But the glove fit C7 is snugger once inside, not an entirely bad thing.

Doing yoga every once and awhile makes getting in and out easier too. You should rent one for a day or two and play with the seat settings. You will find a way to fit! :-)
6'4" 250 and no issues. I don't usually put the seat all the way back either. With a helmet on, I bump the top every now and again but I even sit fairly upright. I just rotate in the car and I'm planted. I even regret not getting the comp seats because I thought I was too big. I'll get them on the next one.
5'10" 260 40 waist, so a bit on the fat-*** side. I have big thighs from lifelong soccer-hockey so if the seat isn't completely lowered sometimes the wings on the bottom will push in, but that's about all.
I'm 6 foot 3, weigh about 185 pounds. Fit easily and am always comfortable. Your height isn't the issue. It's your weight. Corvette's priority is to be a competent sports car. The engineers and designers did what they needed to do to achieve that.
Sorry, no. It isn't. I can lose width, but I cannot cut 2" off my height by going on a diet. Some of you need to realize that not all people are built the same way. I fit in the C6 just fine.

Loosing weight will lower you in the car. You can't carry extra weight in your thighs, butt, hips and back without raising yourself in the car. I learned that years ago when I lost 50 pounds to get back in my funny car. At 6'4" I went from 290 to 240. It was a substantial difference.

If you're obese your *** is bigger - not just the width of it but the overall volume of it. You'll sit lower in the car with a smaller ***.
were out of luck! I sold my c6 when I ordered a c7. What a mistake! I could never get comfortable in the c7. im 6 "1" 300 lbs My head hit the b pillar
We need to start a thread on weight loss accountability. Everyone (me included) needs to post up their progress once a month. No sugar/no white flower. I lost 75 pounds total back in 2001, and through the efforts of very hard work and consistently eating only at the finest restaurants I have managed to gain 90 of it back. Thank you.
I'm 6'4", and last week the Dr chewed me out because I tipped the scales at 319 in her office. Even I was surprised, but not really. Nothing fits (including the C7) and I feel like crap. I just turned 60 three months ago so the clock is ticking I guess.

Maybe I can help. Walk 4 miles a day religiously. You'll lose a pound a week. That's 52 lbs a year. it works. Get some rain clothes and warm clothes for the winter. I don't know where you live, but buy clothes for the weather. No excuses. Oh, I see where you live. Fullerton. A piece of cake if you put your mind to it. No pun intended. No cake.
