The only other time I got to sit in one of these cars was during my test drive back in December. That car had a sunroof in it and I had to lean the seat all the way back and tilt my head to fit in. It was very discouraging, especially when all they had at the North American International Auto Show to sit in was a sunroof model. I feared it would turn a lot of people away due to their height. I am 6'2" and fit into what we call the 5th percentile (I have a taller upper torso than my lower). Well today I got word that there were 5 Camaros in the executive garage at Design Center so I walked over and they had a black SS without the damn sunroof on it. I am happy to report that I fit in there perfect with even an inch of headroom to spare. And I even had to scoot the seat forward a bit; plenty of leg room too. I can't tell you what a relief that was. So good news for any of you tall guys that are thinking about buying one. Just make sure to bypass the sunroof. That sucker takes up A LOT of headroom.

As long as you're built like us, you might. You'll just have to sit in one.

I'm 6"1' and i only have a few inches in my '67.... If you didnt fit you might be able to do a seat mod. to get more room maybe. or bump out the roof over the driver's side. lol
