I agree, i hear it from people a lot asking if there are any. When i say no, they are always surprised.

Id check the seat height. My bf who rides and occassionally drives my camaro is 6'4 , 230lbs and has no issues. Mine also has a moonroof. Im only 5'3 so I have to adjust it up but b4 he can even try getting in, he has to lower it all the way.

5'9" with sunroof & no issues, I've got about 3/4" clearance though - This is seated comfortably and with optimal visibility as opposed to set the seat so that my head clears and hope to get used to it.

I'm sorry but did you just say that the camaro is your winter beater?

I'm 6'5", well portioned geometry, tripple X and wear a 7-3/4" cap, haven't any issues scrubbing my skull 99% of the time...........a occassional speed bump comes into view and I prepare for it by slowing down ( Hence the reason the bump exists). Fact is...........no different than anyother vehicle I've ever owned or ridden in. Caspers got the moonroof upgrade too!

i have the same issue. and im only 5'6". Its like every couple of months im changing my seating preference. I love the dead pedal but I usually drive with my left knee leaning on the door.

So you prefer a seat the pushes your body out away from the foam that hold you in when cornering? Oh, I forgot that you drive a Challehgar which does not have near the handling capabilities of a Camaro. Perhaps if you want to try a little road track driving in both you will realize why the Camaro does not have lumbar.
