No clue. But the early clown shoe design was awful.

While I have had a chance to drive virtually all of them, including the outgoing track car, I can't provide an honest answer simply because I was never able to drive ANY of them. They all suck, because they can't accommodate a bigger driver.

That leaves me out on the height aspect. (6'-3") I seem to remember reading they were hotter than all hell inside too.

In '91-92 I bought a '87 vette vert......reason I kept it only 3 years was the narrow seats, I don't recall having my knees on the wheel though at 6'5"....

but the damn seats were so narrow, and nothing to sub them with, I gave up on the car.....went to the '72 a few months later, and of course improved on it over the years.....fits me like a dream car...snore.....wife even drove it a couple miles not long ago....she is 5'6".....

Buddy of mines dad has a mid-nineties Viper, yellow, low mileage. Tried to get me to buy it before I bought the Rustang. Probably could have got a stellar deal on it, just don't have an interest in them.

Short little puke like you might actually fit in one. Grown men size guys like Datafiz and myself just don't fit.

Haha!!! The last laugh is MINE!!! Although I may only be 5'7", in the end it is only I who has the privilege of being able to comfortably fit in an old, expensive, hideous Dodge sports car of questionable build quality should I ever choose to buy one!!!

*Slowly circles the block around the local highschool at 5mph, golden locks of my hair piece billowing in the wind, looking cool as **** in my clownshoe, heartily chuckling at the sad fate of all the lanky 6 foot tall goobers who will never be able to creep on 18 year olds like me.*

Certainly wouldn't want 1 as a daily driver. It's raw. It's mean. It's obnoxious. It's hot... but they are fun as shit to drive in anger.

Personal favorite: '96 GTS coupe

He had it a couple years, and said the worst part was that he couldn't "turn off" the attention.
