No way would I trade my C2 for a C8. When the C5 came out I liked it right away, the C6, after I got over the shock of seeing headlights, I like it. The C7, if GM had put round taillights on it would be ok. The C8, the more I see it the less I like it. I think driving one would get old, too many features, not enough driving. My wife has an XLR Cad, it's a nice car but it's no fun to drive, you just kind of sit back and let it do it's thing. On the other hand, sitting behind that great gauge cluster and looking out over the beautiful fenders and hood of a C2, that never gets old.
