No offense, but why is it that only "older" gents drive C7's?

- Standard leather seats
- Standard leather trim
- High quality interior over all.
- Bose Audio (way better than Mustangs Premium sound package)
You add the premium package for the Mustang GT, to get the above and it's still not quite as premium feeling. The only thing my base 1 LT is missing that was in the "Premium package" GT I had before is the heated/cooled seats. The rest is pretty much the same if not better.

When I got my C5 some years back I went to a few meetings of a local club. All they talked about were cruise-ins, parades and luncheons. Super-nice people, but not my kind of club at all.

True, but one thing to also keep in mind is that,even the base 1 LT is very nicely equipped which includes
- Standard leather seats
- Standard leather trim
- High quality interior over all.
- Bose Audio (way better than Mustangs Premium sound package)

1LT is missing the heads-up display (a personal "must have" for me) in addition to the bolded in your post and couple of other items. I went 2LT since it has everything I typically want in a Vette and none of the stuff I didn't want.

Had the same experience with two different Corvette clubs. One in Killeen, TX and one in Bel Air, MD. I'm not a modder by any stretch of the imagination, but the stuff Corvette clubs typically do gets old after a short time.

but I agree the 2 LT is a sweet spot for a lot of people. I sort of miss having the heated/cooled seats and a HUD would've been really nice!

I agree, I think the 2LT is the sweet spot. Unless you are hitting the track or buying a Z06 for the power, there's just a lot of superfluous options in the other packages above 2LT that I personally would never use. I couldn't go without the heated/cooled seats either. I use them often!
