Sooo ... and then there's this:

C7 headroom: 37.9 inches
C8 headroom: 37.9 inches
Current car's headroom (718 Cayman): 39.1 inches

Numbers indicate that shoulder room, leg room, and hip room are all reduced in the C8 -- by almost three inches combined.

I fit like a glove in my 718. I do not fit at all in a C7. (I'm 6-4, 245ish)

C8 ownership by taller drivers is not looking promising. It's all going to depend on the type of removable roof Chevy uses, and whether or not there's a semi-hidden lowered seat option like there is now for the C7.

What, does Chevy think its typical 'vette buyers are getting smaller?
