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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moog5050 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 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. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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!

ApexerER Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Those C8s are beautiful. Congrats! I still have my 03 Z06. Can't believe ive had it almost 20 years. I don't drive it much but I doubt I'll ever get rid of it cause I doubt id ever replace it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
