Quick internet search:

C6 Corvette:  174.6"L, 49"H
911 Carrera S:  175.6"L, 51.2"H

And, Corvettes over time:

C5 Corvette:  179.7"L, 47.8"H
C4 Corvette:  178.5"L, 46.3"H
C3 Corvette:  185.2"L, 47.9"H

So they have been getting taller and shorter in length.
I didn't list weight, but Corvettes have been losing about
100-150 lbs per decade.  And I've been gaining that much.
