Another (minor) reason I like 3LT
After driving my new 3LT coupe for a month and parking it in the sun many days I see almost none of the greasy white gunk on the inside of the windshield that I normally see on a new car. Minimal vinyl, minimum out gassing? I wasn't expecting that, but then I've never had a fully leather wrapped car before.

Are you bragging because you have sunny days! Yet another winter storm here in KY. It's like I am living in Alaska again. BTW, for us the 3LT was definitely worth the extra $, also the CF dash. We love the leather seats and trim.

That's a good thing. Cleaning off the windshield of the earlier gen cars was a PITA sometimes.

) Looks like the C7 will stay in the garage tomorrow. At least my company gives us the tools to work from home so I'm good.

The C7 is definitely improved over the C6 and C5 when it comes to out gassing. In high 80's in south Florida last fall I got no window haze at all after days parked in the sun. (VY / black 2LT)

Sun.......what sun? Yeah, we have had some sun here in SE Massachusetts this winter but when you wake up and it is 4 degF, the sun doesn't mean much. We are also about 3 feet above average for snowfall this year. I hope it warms up before my convertible get delivered sometime probably at the end of April.
BTW, Al Gore, if this global warming keeps going like it is here in Massachusetts, I won't be able to afford my heating bills!
