6' 3" ton of head room in the convertible

D Day Dog · 05-20-2011, 05:35 PM

6'5" and enough room with seat all the way back and down. I did telescope the steering wheel all the way towards me to allow for some extra leg room. Fits me just fine this way.

As mentioned be for, Ima jus go to a dealer and test drive one on my day off and see how I fit...

Matster · 05-20-2011, 05:43 PM

6' 2" no issues

hjoneshjones · 05-20-2011, 06:08 PM

3 buddies of mine got Camaros which actually sparked my interest... 6'8, 6'10, and 6'11 so I never thought headroom would be a problem for me at 6'5. I guess I need to go test drive one.

occasionally I'll bump my head coming in and out of the car. I think my skull is used to it now :(

Rocky918 · 05-20-2011, 08:46 PM

just so you know, its not your overall height that matters, it matters how long your legs are.. if you have shorter legs, and a bigger torso, youll hit your head... if you have long ass legs and a shorter torso your fine....

when I say im 6'3 and have about 2 inches of headroom in my SS with a sunroof, that doesnt mean anything because it matters how your ass sits in the seat and if you slouch or not...

you just have to sit in one yourself and find out since hteres no other way to tell, go to a dealer and sit in one

All you giants! 6'8 and 7'0. You guys are lucky I wish I was 6f or greater. Suck to be 5'8...

6'3'' Convertible, no problems top up. Especially no problems with the top down. There's small advantages, like being able to look at stop lights over the windshield. I've also had friends that are 6'6''+ and they had no problem.

2ssblk11 · 03-13-2013, 10:23 PM

6'5, 6'6ish only drove ones with sunroofs and i have plenty of room, seat down all the way of course, hit my head like ehhhhh once in a great while, lots of room to work with though, just gotta open the door all the way when gettin out hehe :p

gmen09 · 03-13-2013, 11:07 PM

I'm 6'2" and I have like a lot of head room, my best friend is 6'8" and he doesn't have any issues either, no sunroof.

Zuumy · 03-14-2013, 02:19 AM

Im 6'4 and i have no problem with my Camaro at all. I don't even have my seat all the way down. Hight shouldn't be a concern.

Dupree878 · 03-14-2013, 02:32 AM

I'm 6'04" and fat (360lbs)
I'm very comfortable in my coupe. I sat in a version with the sunroof and it wasn't workable. The regular coupe sometimes my head bumps going over big speed tables too fast but mostly I'm ok.
I test drive the challenger and Camaro and was dating a woman with a new mustang at the time and I found the challenger easier to get into and out of but while driving found the Camaro more comfortable. I had more headroom in the challenger but felt my legs more cramped.

For racing, when I get myself in ideal position my head is rubbing, but every day driving I have a more relaxed posture and seat position.

At some traffic lights I need to lean forward so i can see the lights if my top is up

If my top is down definitely no issues.
