http://www.chevrolet.com/one13thirteen.html About 7:40 away a/o this posting. There's a countdown clock. I thought they said 7PM EST for the streaming reveal, but that "clock" shows 7PM MST for me...

Best regards,

I'm liking the rear better than the front now...hmmm. Must see it in person for sure. thanks for the pics.

Seats look nice and narrow...that will be my next C5 upgrade for sure, if I keep it.

To be fair, they need to save cash somehow, or this car would cost double what it probably will...

Guys,
Turns out i stumbled on a bookstore whose folks ignored the GM embargo and dropped a bunch of issues right there for all to see. i almost freaked. Took it to a corver of the bookstore and took the shots above

My thnals to TractionControllOff for posting them as I was nowhere near being able to post the shots. I did first them off on my iPhone.

From my experience, that bookstore is going to get hit with a massive fine...

i actually love the interior and at first sight said the same thing, more c4-ish, which i prefer the wrap around design more over my c5

Name a car that isn't plastic in those areas. You don't provide sufficient crash protection without plastic. Every make is plastic even the couple hundred K cars. You think it isn't plastic hammer on it a little and you will find out.
