That's probably true. It doesn't improve safety though. I'm not looking at the road ahead when I'm distracted by how bad it looks. I might rear end the car in front of me that has that same feature while distracted. Sometimes laws and regulations need to change if they are bad laws. Or move the LED a little further away from the turn signal so it can remain on. Or dim both LEDs at the same time.

Melting Slicks
Lots of current driver focused sport/hyper cars still have standard controls. There are no shortage of options, regardless of price point, from the Ariel Atom to Koenigsegg. Part of the reason the previous GT is now worth double or triple its original asking price is because guys like me are over the diaposeable electronic nonsense in modern cars. Don't get me wrong, I love science but I've had it with these buggy worthless distractions littering consoles in new cars. I have a C7 Z06 and what is otherwise perfection is ruined by the glowing abortion in front of the shifter. The Z06 is a barely legal track car with a dash designed for Asian teenage girls. I want to adjust the temp and turn the music up or down. I don't need the weather, a hands free phone, a GPS that can't find anything, a friggin' SMS app or a $200 a year subscription to Howard Stern in a car with 650 horsepower.
BTW, you'd have more credibility of you learned the difference between your and you're. Maybe you should stick with emojis?

You clearly want to drive a car from a different era. As you have already mentioned, there are cars out there that fit the bill for you. Enjoy them while they last.
I am glad that GM is making cars that are contemporary -- something the Corvette has always represented. I don't think the Corvette should be stuck in 1967.

Doors that open a little wider. I always scrape the speaker grill with my big feet when exiting a C7. Did not have that problem in a C6.
