I am 6'2 and 260+ lbs. I have absolutely ZERO issues. My father in law is 6'5 and 280 lbs + and he has no issues in the car. I know he can't wear a helmet if he decided to buy one and track it, I CAN fit and drive the car with a helmet. I put on my motorcycle helmet on and do fit np.

I am 6'1 300 pounds i have a 2SS without sunroof I have plenty of room, Very comfortable. I traded in my 2SS G5 and between the two i can not really tell the G6 is a inch smaller. Love the car lots of room.
It was funny when i picked up my car there was a LT in the showroom and failry large guy tried jumping in it and said DAMN there is no room in this car. The guy never adjusted the seat. I walked up to him and adjusted the seat and he got in it and said WOW there is room in the car. People say the sunroof takes away a little of the head room but I never sat in one that had a sunroof. |

I am 6'2", 230 lbs and a pretty large build, and my upper body fits fine. I have plenty of room for my shoulders and arms, however my legs are fairly thick so they can get a little cramped with the steering wheel depending on what position I am in, but nothing I cant handle at all. It still has enough room for me to feel comfortable.

I'm 6'1 but I could barely fit in the car with the sun roof, I had half an inch of head room with it. I was not comfortable at all. My body proportions are pretty equal between legs and head. But lets just say my 86 trans am has more headroom and its a smaller car. Legroom on the ss is great, and without the sunroof is great! However. all the new cars even the challenger I could not fit with the sunroof. They added too much cushion to the damn seats/

I'm 6'4 around 290 lbs. Pretty big guy. I have a 2SS with a sunroof and have no problems with leg room or fit. It does feel a bit more cramped than my previous 5th gen but it all depends on how you set your seat.

Their are some big boys driving these cars eh ?? I'm 6'2 but ONLY 200 and I think people may confuse cramping with contoured. The car sits lower than most so you have to (for lack of better term) plop in to the seat but once you are in, it fits like a glove.

6'2" - 200lbs. I've got a 1SS manual, no sunroof. No issues. IMO, driving ergonomics are great for manual shifting.

I'm 6'1" 215 lbs. and have plenty of headroom with the sun roof. I tried the back seat though and have to tilt head to the side.

6'2" 235 no issues at all with comfort. A/C blows perfectly on me. I'm not sure what smaller people complain about when they say they can not get comfortable.

6'2'', 220lbs and fit just fine. I took it on a 4hr road trip and was fine when i got there. like its been said, it can take a little work to get in but once your in the seat its like a glove!
If your feeling a little crammed remember to check how the seat is adjusted. Sometimes the seat might be all the way back but not all the way down. If you feel like your head is hitting the roof move the seat forward then push the button down. This not only lowers the seat but moves it backwards at the same time. If the seat is already all the way back it will not lower any farther unless you move it forward first. |
