Default Z06 Trunk dimensions

I need the width and height of the trunk since we will be picking up the vehicle in a couple weeks and I need to know how to pack

I have a convertible. I don't know the exact measurements but it is certainly small.

The GS/Z06 convertible trunk will hold two typical size rolling airline carry-on bags and still have space for additional items on top.

Thank you so much. This photo was worth a thousand words. It's huge by my standard. I was told to pack light but it's actually quite spacious. You're a love!

While not near as much space as a coup, there's more space than you think when you start loading the vert trunk up. To be more specific, it
measures approx 49"x16"x11".

49"X16"X11" equals 4.99 cubic feet.

GM specs are 10 cu ft cargo space for the convertible(15 cu ft for the coupe).

The C6 convertible also had 10 cu ft cargo space.

I wonder where the discrepancy is.

One reason why I didn't go with a convertible is that I need to be able to carry multiple guitars:

See my above photo. My dimensions are for the trunk compartment with rear partition up/fastened. GM is including the area behind the partition where the convertible top is stored when down. If top is up, there's additional usable space in that area not shown in my photo.

I typically keep my partition up and fastened as the top mechanism will lower the top if not up and fastened.

There is even more room in the vert with top up and partition down. Three to four cloth grocery bags more can be shoved or stuffed there!

Way smaller than the C5. My only real gripe about the C7. There were many things I was able to carry in my C5 that I cannot in my C7 (both coupes).
