I'm 5'11" 165-ish. I really liked the narrow Recaros in my GT350. I like to be locked in. The cockpit of the Camaro fits me pretty well though. I drove a Challenger SRT8 for fun and felt like I was a 14 year old in my dad's car haha.

Na, if I thought it was a reoccurring issue I'd not have bought this Chevy

Actually...
2015 ZL1 had audible knock on CA91 octane gas. The car always maxxed out the knock retard under medium-heavy throttle. I had to have the car tuned and voided my warranty but then it ran excellent.
2017 Grand Sport Rod Knock on Cyl #5 -- engine replaced under warranty. After the swap, it happened again on another cylinder (I forget which) so I gave the car back to them.
2017 Z06 Strong hesitation issues when applying moderate throttle around 4k RPM in gears 3,4,5,6,7. Dealership was never able to resolve it even though they did reproduce it. Guesses were fuel pump, traction control sensors, limited slip, etc.
2018 ZL1 1LE So far so good but I'm only at 1100 miles. However I did crash it after 4 days of ownership. Some dude forced me into a center divider and trashed the entire front end. $16k worth of damage. But that wasn't the car's fault
EDIT:
I believe the 2015 ZL1 was just an issue where the ZL1 didn't like CA91 gas as it was tuned for 93 which we don't get in CA.
The Grand Sport was just bad luck, it happens.
The Z06 is the one that really pissed me off because I had the car a year and they couldn't fix it. But it probably wasn't engine issues.
