6'3 230 here, legroom not an issue, headroom is tight for me but not a problem.

6'3" 240 with 33.5 inseam. Leg room is fine. I was more concerned with headroom since I have a long torso.
Just adjust the seat properly and you shouldn't have a problem.
I have an inch+ of headroom in my Vert. It's a snug fit, but very comfortable.
My ride home from the dealer was 90 miles of smiles.

Test drive won't do it. I have friends that loved the C6 but found the C7 seats uncomfortable. I love my C7 but I am only 160 lb and 5-11.

Nice Ride

6'3 and 270 with 2015 C7,Z51, A8. Once in the car there is plenty of room. Seats are very comfortable and the Corvette is a pleasure to drive. I usually back up to the seat and sit with both feet on the ground then swing my legs over under the steering wheel. Knees are bad and can't bend them full flex as back in the day. Also for me it is an effort not to touch/scrape the open door panel or kick panel with my foot. Corvette is low so it is not easy on old knees getting up and down to move in and out of the car but fully worth the effort once inside.

6'1" - 215, no problems at all, not for nothing but after reading this thread we are some big SOB's driving these things...haha

6'4" 250-260 an no problems. Takes some fiddling with the seat to get the right position. The passenger side is tight, but bearable. Seems way tighter on the passenger side than any of my C5s or C6s were. I would avoid the comp seats though.

Much like you, I'm 6 feet and 255 with broad shoulders (I wear a size 50 sport coat but waist is 38). I have the 'regular' sport seats and the car is very comfortable. I opted not to get the competition bucket seats for fear they would be too tight, but did have a chance to drive a car fitted with them at Spring Mountain. They were a bit snug but not uncomfortable. Since I don't track my car I have no regrets in the seat selection.

I think you'll be fine once you get the adjustments figured out.

Rent one first.....
Cheap insurance if it does not work out.

Everyone is built different, can not go by height, weight,
and other figures. C7 seat bottoms are short and even
less width than C6's.

I'm not as big as you but I'm still 6'2" and 210. I have zero issues with the Corvette. Plenty of head room, I road course my car and still have headroom with my helmet. I'm coming from a 2013 Camaro ZL1 where I did not have a sunroof and my head was very close to touching the roof. With a helmet I had to lean the seat back in a less than optimal setting. The C7 has more driver legroom and head room than the 5th gen Camaro, which is kind of surprising since the C7 is smaller overall.

What's the deal with seat limiters? What are they and will disabling / removing them allow more leg or head room? Also, does it matter if the seats are 8-way or 10-way adjustable?

RapidC84B

The limiter behind the seat will allow a little more leg room, but it does nothing for head room. The further back you go the less room there is due to the C7's sloped roof. I'm 6'4" and have no issue with legroom.

Sorry bud... I didn't revisit this post until now.

The seat delimiter is a pressure sensor that is built to detect the distance between the back of the seat and the bulkhead.

It doesn't affect anything with the rest of the seat itself like the 8 or 10 way adjustments. So, some of us (including myself - to remind, 6'6"-290) have put in sound deadening squares behind the seats.

When I did this, the seat was all the way up against the steering wheel, but because the sound deadener was against the delimiter, it refused to move back, so that's how I found out it was a pressure sensor.

When I disconnected it, the seat moved back all the way to the bulkhead - about a half inch further than it used to giving me that extra bit of space that the deadener would've taken away.

To answer your question more directly, it won't affect the 8 or 10-way functions on your seats. It will just allow JUST A BIT more room for your legs so your knee doesn't hit the poorly-placed hatch release button.



Oh... And the seats do have more side bolstering than the C6 seats did. I loved the 2012+ C6 seats but every magazine writer and all the 'normals' were clamoring for side bolstering and that's what they got. That's why we bigs got the shaft.

It's really not bad. Now it's pretty much like a BMW M3/M4's seats.

5'10" 275lbs here, fit fine. 29-30" inseam. Most of my weight is in my gut, but I have big thighs from hockey / soccer all my life. Able to get comfy for long rides, no problem.

I have had my C7 Z06 M7 with the standard seats for almost 3 weeks now. I find the C7 super comfortable. More headroom than my C5Z and my C4 ZR-1. The C4 is really tight on headroom - track time requires the glass top. C7 beats them both. My 94 ZR-1 is way bette than the 90 ZR-1 with sports seats - one of the most painful cars to drive (where they had the seat controls). This C7 is heaven compared to a C4. I don't have much seat time in a C6 to compare.

Interesting point about the passenger seat - I will have to try it out.

6'1" 225lbs. No issues with leg or headroom. I actually like a higher view and can raise seat with good headroom. I do find the seat bottom bolsters tight on my thighs and I plan to have an upholsterer replace stock foam with a more relaxed foam or memory foam.

ZR-1DUDE

How many miles do you have on it? My left bottom bolster was bugging me some but it has gotten better. I think it needed some miles. I am at around 1800 miles.

I'm still on the fence about having them re-done in something softer. I'm at 3k miles and some days they bug me, others not so much.
