No, you are wrong on both accounts - you getting Camaro facts from NastyLS1?
The 5th gen we looked at and sat in this weekend AT THE CAMARO NATIONALS YOU DIDN'T GO TO MR. CAMARO has crappy trunk. The spare made the floor jet up way in the way.
I have space saver spare in my 77 and can fit more than you think in the trunk. I'll go trunk to trunk with a 5th gen.
And a grown (6") cannot sit in the back - Billy tried and had to bend his head over in order to sit in it. Fail. And we watched as an 8 year old boy could not sit behind his Mom when she was driving. Fail.
