The best I can get out of this is that the windows are under the ceiling?

Maybe he's getting at the windows close into the roof rather than an upper frame on the door, similar to the C7?

I think he's asking if the roofline is lower...

Sounded to me like he simply created a post to say "since the roofline is lower, and there is less headroom, the windows are still small, so I won't be buying a generation 6 Camaro"

But honestly, I have no damn clue.

The roof line is lower, but so is the entire car's overall stance.

headroom decreased, at least from what they put out.

But I read that the seats are positioned lower. So maybe headroom did not decreae, at all? Hell... Who knows at this point.

The roof line is lower, the belt line appears about the same, so the glass height is likely shorter unless the belt line was lowered as well.

So, likely, yes.

Just a reminder ...

When someone asks a question, please try and help them out. Joking about their poor writing (particularly when there is a good chance they're not a native English speaker) is frowned upon.

Back on topic.




I think the OP is concerned about the outward visibility rather than headroom. Specifically, the windows getting even smaller due to the lower roof. I've heard that the hood is lower (larger front windshield) and the A-pillar is thinner, both of which will improve forward visibility. But I don't remember hearing anything specific about the side windows

If you read his previous posts it's pretty clear.....

These last 2 gens are borderline factory chop-tops, with visibility issues, but looks that are off the charts AWESOME!

Old school comparison.....
