Default C6 - Bluetooth

I just got a new cell phone which is bluetooth enabled. I'm reading through my C6 owners manual again to see if my 2006 C6 (LT3, nav system, onstar) is also bluetooth compatible. Can anybody give me a quick yes or no on this? Thanks.

Unfortunatly its not. Its such a great feature im surprised it dosnt have it. Go for an aftermarket one. Not as good but still it gets the job done.

I got a Motorola IHF 1000. Works fine, easy install. Only real downside is that my wife can hear me thwackin on it when she calls. Some have reported satisfactory results from the Parrot products.

My blue tooth is easy! I use one of those little things that loop around your ear. I turn it on when I get in the car and lay it in the cupholder, and if I get a call I hang it on my ear, push the button and talk.
My phone also has voice dial so if I want to make a call I pretty much do the same thing.
It ain't fancy but it works and I never get complaints about muffled or far away sound from the people I am on the phone with.

JVM225 is correct about the ear piece. Its real easy and very clear. On-Star is almost useless because you cannot access mailboxes and answering machines
