Hey from the South Carolina Coast. I have a 64, 95 and 96 Corvette ( all mint and documented ). First, the 64 is the easiest to get in and out of, not so much with the 95 and 96. I use the butt first method. Sit in seat then pull legs in one at a time. Never use steering wheel for support. 6'3 215 here. On another subject great time to buy a C4. 2 months got wifey the 95 I was talking about. Red with red interior, convertible white top with the rare hard top option from the factory ( only 8% and was a $2,000 option in 95 ) also has the Z51 handling package with ride control, 38k miles, mint condition got it for $11,000 which I thought was a great deal. Car listed for $48k in 95 !

I'm 6'1" also, and 260lbs. but my shoes are size 14, you said narrow footwell so probably be a tight squeeze for me. Back in the day my buddy had a '72 Vette with 454 and 4 speed and I had no trouble driving that although I wasn't as heavy as I am now. Nice car you picked up good 1/4 mile run and exhaust note.

thanks for checking out my videos, I appreciate it. Im also a size 14 shoe. I can drive this car with minimal issues in terms of the footwell. It definitely helps that its an automatic. If this car was a manual, I dont think id be nearly as comfortable. I could do it, but id imagine I wouldnt want to do road trips in it with the limited foot room. with the auto, I can be in this car for 3-4 hours at a time relatively comfortably. Its no cadillac, but its doable.

i do too. Its relatively uncommon. However the 1st time i took this car to a local car meet there was one identical to it there! Small world I guess haha

Nice C4... Worth the trouble getting in and out...

thanks. I agree, ive really enjoyed the car thus far.

I'm 5'8" 165. I kinda roll out of it pushing off the door sill and never the steering wheel. Good video! 👌

thanks. Yeah, these sporty cars can be tricky to get in. Can be difficult to not hit your head on the roof sometimes haha

I have a Corvette C4. 89 yep that's how you do it 😉

The exact same way i do it!
