I’m sure that hellcat will smoke it lol

They are closer than you’d think. At least with my regular 20” wheels on it. My Cat is heavy and traction is tricky. Now, if I have the 17” Mickeys on the back, and I’m hooking, it’s a different ballgame. 
 

The new Z06 would eat me alive.

Congrats!  I have owned 3 vettes, last one was rarely used due to kids.  I am almost at the stage that I could drive one regularly but now feel like I would be one of those older vette dudes that are cliche.  lol   Enjoy.  Love the C8s.   I haven't tried fitting in one, but the C6 was great, the C7 not so much.

Thanks .I don’t see how older dudes get in and out of these things .I almost needed help lol

My brother in law bought a new one about every other year , depending on if he liked current colors available. Last year at age 70 he sold his for good, for that reason .

It was never the fact it was low (to be expected), but I am 6'1" with the torso of someone 6'5" and legs of a 5'9" person and am noseguard wide so it was always interesting to see what fit.   The C6 convertible I owned was really comfortable. Probably should have kept it.  But I love the look of the mid engine C8.  Good luck with her!
