They are made to accommodate the upper percentile male and lower percentile female. Nominal position will be for an averaged sized person. You, sir, are not average sized.

They’re not. You’re just a bit of a freak, statistically speaking. Sports cars are gong to be tough for you, but at least you can shut the smoke detector up without bringing out the step ladder.

Yea. 6'2 seems to be the upper limit for most sports car makers but tall humans can find an extra inch or two with lower seat brackets or aftermarket seats. It’s a drag I know but car makers do strange things like shove your feet together with offset pedals and the like.

I dunno, man... The v6 Camaro sounds pretty decent...

I’m 5'6"; the C7 Corvette is too damn big.

Most people are between 5'5" and 6'0". They are making cars suitable to the largest demographic.

I am happily 5 11 though my dr says i am 6 ft, i think they are generous.

That would be extremely good and not dumb

Who told you to be 6’5” NOT ME

The C5 actually is a really impressive car. The frame design and suspension layout hasn’t really changed that much between a 1997 C5 and a 2018 C7 Z06. It’s mostly been incremental changes to the control systems and powertrain. The interiors have gotten a lot nicer as well.

Ok, wow, this post might be a sign. My very next tab I was about to open was to look for period reviews of the C5 Vette when it first came out. Why? Because I am going to look at flood-victim C5 on Saturday with a rebuilt title. It runs but has some issues. Looks like this one but not nearly as nice.

Do you have to be a dick? Just tell him or don’t respond. While I am assuming they are the carbon flash, I can’t tell off the configurator the difference between the two and I am not colorblind.

200 miles on it and pulling a dyno? More money than brains.

What’s the matter? You color blind? It’s obvious which ones they are.

Which wheels are those? On the ZR1 config website they list two different black wheels — Carbon Flash-painted, Satin Graphite-painted — but the difference is imperceptible.

I’m pleased to announce we’re working on a “top fuel dragster” Challenger called the “Satan” with 8000hp.

Spoken like someone who knows nothing, and is filled with jealousy.....

So I said to Grant, “What’s the deal with the wing?” And he said, “I guess I never thought about it.” “Never thought about?? You’ve got this big honking airfoil sticking off the back. You may as well glue feathers to it and call it a duck. It’s not a duck, is it, Grant?” “No, it’s not a duck, Jerry.” “Well, it just…

Al Gore never claimed that. Everyone who was involved in inventing and building the Internet gave Al huge praise for pounding the halls of Congress to explain the importance of the Internet and getting funding legislation to get it built.

There’s a little Al Gore invents the internet in Jerry’s story. That reminds me of at the library in the 1970s I asked the librarian for a book (which was lost), she called around and remarked to me “it would be great if our card catalogue was connected to other libraries”
