So we have two distinctly different pictures now. The second one shows a touchpad; the first one does not. The second one is actually closer to what Zerv provided initially. Note that touchpads appeared in the recent (dearly departed) CT6, so a touchpad is definitely within the design scope of GM. Note also the icon for a heated steering wheel.

True, but the 2 car theory is plausible. C8 FE successor to the C7, and the ME gets called Corvette Zora or something.

That also gives more credit to the 2 car theory. Let's take a moment and think: if he is not BSing us, and is right... then he saw a different car interior. Also he said there was four letters on the steering wheel, which could easily be and are likely "Zora". GM recently patented Zora as well

It looks to me like there IS NOT a continuous arc across the top leading into sloping downward on to the console with the buttons. Fuzzy, I know, but where the black ends it then turns into that lighter console color after stepping down from above. Noted by my yellow line. The Info screen stands out, canted towards the driver from the dash too, as previously noted. I outlined it in red. Zerv02 wrong about this detail?
I hope this is the case as one on my big concerns is too much signature interior features carried over from the C7 onto the C8 ME, this being a big one. I want a totally new look both interior and exterior!
