Actually not a bad take on the C6.

1. Everybody complains about the plastic interior finishes.
2. Yes the leaf spring is crude (but works) compared to coil overs
3. They did compliment Power, speed and handling
4. Everybody complains about the stock shifters (both C5 and C6)

Considering cost of the C6 compared to the others still the best Sports Car in the world for the $

They are still mad they lost the war. Always jealousy, we are the upstart little brother. We used to make Britain pink on our maps for the longest time. I used to teach history is how I know this.

There is your useless bit of info for the night,
