Mirrors on 5th Gen's DO NOT fold. If you do not have a side (Left) door for your trailer you will need to crawl out of the trunk to get out unless you are like 120lbs.
Thanks for the mirror info. Width is to determine if it fits into the small side of my garage with a smaller door.

Length is my concern, my trailer is an 18' with some front shelving. I measured and I know it is going to be within 1-2" of fitting or not. A real-life measurement is necessary (taking into account the front splitter).

Yes, left side fold-up door on my current trailer, greatest thing eveh! lol. I've done the winch-in/trunk crawl and that's for the birds.

I need to determine if this will fit into my existing trailer and would be monumentally grateful if you could measure width at the mirrors (do they fold?). And stem to stern length of the car at it's longest points.

Thanks in advance!

I put my fifth gen in a enclosed trailer for the first time to go to the fest, and I used a 20X8.5 enclosed car hauler. The width was a tight fit and I was able to get out of the driver door without a side door on the trailer, I am about 160 pounds and just had to squeeze through.

I will say that anything less that 20Ft will be a tight fit. Mine was an enclosed V-nose so it really is about 22Ft total inside and I would say I had about less than 4 feet in front and a little less than a foot in back.

Oh and just so you know, the widest part of these cars is the rear quarter panels I believe.

The tires make it a VERY tight fit. I can get you measurements though We have a modified front lip on the rear door for low cars. Our ZR1 has no problem either. I Bo-Duke it out the window myself. I don't use the escape door! No shoes, and always soft pants or shorts. Yoga helps as well

More pics soon!

Since the rear seats don't fold...how can you get out of the back of the car even if you wanted to ?
(That's how I used to get out of my lowered C5 Z06 when I would put it on a trailer.)

Love the plate.

If you ever find yourself in the Pittsburgh area let me know and hopefully it will coincide with our biweekly cars and coffee events
