the interior. hated it from the get go, thought it was ok when i saw the interior in person a couple months ago, but after the g8 the interior my keep my away and in a g8

 

Instrument panel, gas cap, mirrors...I can deal with the rest.

 

Gauges could be a deal breaker for me. I don't want to be looking at that while I'm driving.

 

This is why i think the interior is going to go through a major revision. I think that for the majority of people it is a love/hate kind of thing, and from my experiences there are more peopl on the hate side of the fence.

GM will have to develop an interior that is in-line with the mainstream that will not completely dissuade people from buying the car. One that people can certainly live with even if they are not completely in love with the interior.

Personally, as much as I absolutely LOVE the exterior of the car, I just can't see staring at that hideous interior every day. But I am confident that GM will pull it off in the production version.

 

Why? I can' think of a single chevrolet made in the past 20 years that has what would reasonably be called a nice interior for it's time. Even the corvette lags for the price range it's in, my GTO interior is a lot nicer than the C5 / C6. I am fully expecting the camaro interior to dissapoint and praying that holden exports the next GTO too, because the only thing worse than chevy interiors for the past 20 years have been the pontiacs.

 

The Firebird/Trans-Am.

 

I haven't had the chance to look inside a newer chevy car, but I would say that their truck and SUV interiors for the newer models are supurb. I have an '02 Silverado and think the interior is very cheap, and like you had not been overly pleased with GM interiors until recently, but I think the new truck and SUV interiors look much more refined.

I am also fairly impressed with the pontic interiors as of late, like on the G6s. Again, before the '05 (or there abouts) MYs the Pontiacs looked like every other GM, but I think they are doing a good job of differentiating their product lines now.

 

hope they redo the guages

 

Amen. It doesn't take very long at all to get used to the C6 gauge cluster.

 

I don't like the black look of the grill...is it plastic? I would rather it be shiny chrome, and remove the bowtie.

 

i don't mind the acutal guage cluster, it's the face of the guages that bothers me... make em normal

don't like the center console guages.. too inconvenient a location...

don't like the scoop above the grill..

don't like the fake exhaust outlets, real pipes would be just fine

the side mirrors are too skinny

the wheels are too big

the gas cap should be on the side like normal cars, not on top of the rear fender

the trunk opening is a bit small, the lid should go down the the bumper or so

not much headroom, should be taller

too wide

the radio should be a regular factory unit

 

The tail lights SUCK.

 

so basically, you want to drive a civic...

 

where did i say i don't want a V8 RWD car that looks like the concept car?.. i love the concept car and i hope the production car looks 90% like it..

 

dude, I was just kidding, hence the winking smiley...jeez
