Question C6 Smaller Inside Than C5 ????

I ran into a friend of mine who has a place in line for the new C6Z yesterday who also happens to own a 2004 C5Z and he said (knowing I'm a Big Guy) that the overall interior of "space" in the C6 (normal and Z) is less than that of the C5.

Is this the case??

The only "interior" space I am concerned with is the combustion chamber and it is larger on the C6 Z06! That's all I care about.

The exterior is shorter and the wheelbase is longer, does it matter??

Interior space always matters to us over 6'4 size people. Sometimes I think shorter people don't know how lucky they are, any car fits them. Us, we have to hunt around a good bit!

Glenn, I have sat in one, if you fit in the C5, you will be fine. It at first gives the impression of being a little closer, but I don't think it actually is. Hope this helps.

I'm a pretty big guy with a long torso and short legs!!

I didn't notice a difference with the C6.
I really notice a difference between the C4 and C5!!

I sat in one and didn't think there was much difference. But, since i'm not 6'4" I guess everything fits me just fine.
