Here's one to share. The car is gorgeous. Although the C6 interior is very "plasticky". I prefer the C5 interior!
The door panel window/mirror controls and the DIC controls on the C6 is very, very cheap looking plastic. I much prefer our rubbery buttons.

The 427 sold me so much, that I must have missed the cheap buttons.

Someone, please buy one, drive it very little, take very good care of it, and let me know when you want to sell it cheap. Hey.... I don't want much.

To be honest, I'm not impressed. I just can't get use to the C6 lines no matter what color the car is or what model. I guess I'm stuck in the past (and lovin' it).
