Bring back the Pop Up lights and do something with the ugly rear end. The C-6 does not excite me at all unlike the C-5 and C-3s.

The split rear window was cool until you treied to look through it from the inside. These cars have got enough blind spots.

Thank you for expressing your personal opinion .
Thanks God not everybody is as direct (or shall I say rude?) as you are .
I do not think the C6 is a pretty, well designed car but it is certainly not the worst of the collection .
