Default If you could add one option to your C7

What would this option be? Specifically an option that is not offered on the C7. I am just curious, I am happy with my C7 (finally got a fully loaded one) and love it way more than my C6 (base model, z51).

Anyway, I would have liked to see power folding mirrors be offered. It is not a big deal but whenever I park the car in the garage I always feel the urge to fold in my mirrors manually. I have the garage space but IDK I just like to do it.

What about you guys?

It would be a toss up between blind spot monitor and auto hatch pull-down.

Adaptive headlights. Had no idea how useful they were until I had them on my BMW.

To me the single thing I would like to see, a simple thing, have the hatch opening/closing trigger the door windows "indexing" motors. IMO the addition of a "switch" on the hatch would not be any more weighty than the "bi-metal" damper now installed that semi-works. The indexing motors are already there, what could a few feet wire and switch weigh?

i'm surprised no one has brought up the round tail light stuff, that being said i don't want that but would prefer blind spot monitoring or front and rear parking alerts.

I also would like to see power folding mirrors as my garage opening is only 8ft. and I need to push in the outside mirror of my daily driver ever time I enter and push it out every time I leave. The C7 is wider and I would rather not have to push in the left mirror and leave the car to push in the right mirror when I get the car.

I'd like an auto targa top remover so I don't have to take it off and put it back on myself. Probably alot of design would be needed to do it, but I always felt it would be a nice addition.
