So this is sure to be a hilarious post as you can tell by the title.

I'm 6'7" 350lbs, so I don't fit comfortably in much. I currently have a beater '89 v6 firebird, and I fit well in it, because of how low the seats are and how far under the dash I can extend my legs.

I'm looking to get into a 4th gen lt1, 6 speed in the spring. Im just wondering if there are any big dudes out there driving these cars, and how comfortable/how much room there is. I obviously know I'll be sacrificing comfort, and that I am in now way going to have room to lounge around.

Lastly, if someone has found that there wasn't sufficient room, has anyone come up with any solutions involving the seat to squeeze a little more room out of the cabin. Thank you.

 

im 6ft 220# and i fit in the 4th gens just fine, the seats are still low and theres good legroom. i had to pull the seat forward a few clicks in order to push the clutch all the way in.

 

Okay that's good to know, my biggest issue with cars is that my legs end up being all bowed out looking like this... <> around the steering wheel lmao, so it's an awkward angle driving standard, plus my right now ends up literally on top of the shift know. haha. Another question, this one will make you chuckle...

How is the pedal placement, are they spaced nicely? It's hard squeezing two size 18's down there... lmfao

 

well i know i have a size 12 and ive had no issues, but thats a long ways from an 18. i know what you mean about your legs, my cousin is 7'1'' and drives an S10. lol he looks like a clown in it.

 

lmao yeah I can imagine, alright, I appreciate the input, thanks man.

 

no problem. also a good thing to do, find one at a dealership and see how she fits

 

Yeah my mom tryed to drive mine once. She could barely fit lol. Shes to wide she couldn't even get the seatbelt on.

 

I'm 6'1" and am comfortable driving my '94. The passenger side with the invasive hump is another story...

 

Yeah I've got the hump in my bird, lmao.

 

I am a 6ft 4 ex offensive lineman. I am at 255 lbs now, but when I got the car I was 285 and I fit fine. I wear size 13.5 shoes and I can work all the pedals fine. The best thing to do would be to go and test drive one.
