You won't fit in a C7?
I wonder if the C-8 will fit tall people. I have a few friends that are over 6'3" and simply won't fit in as C-7. The C-8 looks like it will be a tighter fit.

I am 6'3 and when i was compeating in bodybuilding i was 285lbs and never had an issue fitting in C7, or C6.
I did break the seat bottom in C6.

Competition seats help for sure.
Glass top helps also.
My 16 Z06 with GT seats and the solid top was really tight.
ZR1 with competition seats is much better even without the glass top.
I am 6’2”

I'm 6'6 and I fit, but like any corvette I don't get in it, I put it on like a suit.

I recently traded in my 2008 C6 on a C7. I drove my C6 for about 6 1/2 years. I haven't noticed that the C7 interior is much of any smaller than my old C6. As far as my height, I have no issues with either one.

If you're tall, you have to be careful with how you set the seat. I've noticed that since the roof tapers downward as you approach the halo bar, you can get a little more headroom by moving the seat forward an inch or two, and setting the seat back a couple clicks above it's full-back position.

It's up to the individual. It's not just height. There's some real porkers, both short and tall. One ol boy member here is 6'5" and in his 70s. He doesn't complain, but he's also not fat.
Then there's mobility issue individuals. The C6 sucked for seating comfort to me. The C7 fits me perfectly. Both seating and roomwise. As did my 1977 C3. It just depends on the individual, as I stated...
