2007 - Problems Already!
Driving my 2007 home from the dealership today:
The top flew off, the rear-end was grinding, the FOB wouldn't work
right, black grease was squirting out of the back right CVJ boot, the
battery went dead, the Service Active Handling message kept showing
up on the DIC (oh my!), the ash tray kept opening, the rear hatch
button was acting funny, the drive-shaft tunnel was hot, the rubber
above the VIN # was sagging, but otherwise, everything was fine!
Oh wait, I just woke up - It was a very bad dream.
(Oh come on! Have a sense of humor!)
I get my car sometime next week. I sure hope they worked all these
problems out on the 2007's!

Thankfully, there is a statistical principal known as 'joint probability', working in your favor... if that happened, Bill and Ted would likely say "Whoa, dude -- swing by the Circkle K to buy a lotto ticket.. .strange things are afoot..."

Your dream was my reality. My 2006, built the first week of production, brokedown before I got hope from the dealer that was 50 miles away. After waiting 4 hour for roadside assistance and a Domino's pizza later, my wife came and got me.
GM is now the proud of owner of the my first C6 that was built the first week of the 06 porduction, because it was towed in every week I owned it.
