So Mikey, are you saying she can't be on camera unless she is sleeping with the right guy?

Maybe you didn't notice how nervous the guys were on stage 1-13-13 when the coupe was introduced? Go back and look.

I wasn't noticing the nervous'ness - as much as the camera time that lady was getting.

I've never owned or liked the convertibles, as I've always felt the line of the car looked better in coupe form. This may be the first time I prefer a convertible to a coupe! I'm not sure what it is yet, maybe it looks more "clean"? I like that the rear vents are gone. Maybe my issue with the coupe is the roof lines. Anyway, at this point, I prefer the convertible. That's a first for me!

She did OK. The cars speak for them selves.

I was that was as wello.

Until the wife bought this:




And the C6 GS Vert has similar appeal to me. But the C4's and previous generations... I always liked the coupe better

I don't know, I think she did a pretty good job. Who exactly was the audience? Media pre-reveal? Enthisiasts? Dealers? All of the above? A presentation will vary depending on who is there. I believe she showed some class by not being too over-the-top. Certainly we have more substantive items to discuss than grading the presentation.

Wasn't bothered by the music either. The vert is a very nice looking car and my wife loves it. I can see one in my future. I hope they become available in a timely fashion.

Thank you. I wonder how many folks posting bravely on this Forum have actually made presentations of that significance and exposure? A few, perhaps.

Also, I thought I also picked up on the 6th-gen slip-up on her part when I watched the official reveal video, but this time it sounded to me like she was referring ro the '04 C6 vert reveal. Did I miss something?

She did fine, the Vert looks really nice...
