Will I fit? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Jaykenstein · 04-28-2009, 08:27 PM

I am contemplating a 2SS purchase. I haven't ordered yet because I need to sit in a vehicle to make sure I will be comfortable. I'm 6'5" and I was wondering if anyone who is the same or greater height has driven or purchased one yet? The LS models are supposed to be hitting the lots in the next week, so I plan on checking the leg and head room when they arrive.

Also, has anyone had any luck getting an employee discount? Apparently it is available and I saw a site that quoted the price at $30 and change for the 2SS. I've been reading posts that mention dealers being discount friendly. Is this in regard to employee discounts or other incentives?

I believe I have read where people have comfortably fit around your height..

You definitely need to sit in one first, but what from I have read you will probably be okay as long as you don't order the sunroof. Good luck!

And it will be a 3 seater.
Kinda like my Old RX8 the drivers seat back far enough, no room behind .

No sunroof for you!

i was kinda worried about the same thing before i ordered mine, myself being 6'4, but there was that video a while back on here of conan o'brien, who i think is 6'5, getting into one at an auto show and he looked like he fit in it fine.

lil_chef · 04-28-2009, 09:20 PM

Thanks, that thread is definitely reassuring. I'm not into sun roofs and a back seat with room just means extra weight to slow me down.

levi1922 · 04-28-2009, 10:16 PM

theres always the option of getting the sun roof,
and just sticking your head out there.
but, hey, if your not into open air, thats fine too.

6'5 is one thing .............how much fat you have on your @ss is another.

HEMI DAVE · 04-29-2009, 10:30 AM

Arnold looked like he was in a go cart so try before you buy

Its not just about height but mass also.
