Wait - it needed racing fuel for you to fall behind its exhaust?

Lol, I'll give you that. I still don't think GM can make a half decent interior. Though, the C6 is probably the first Vette interior that's acceptable in 35-40 years.

It's better than the interior in my 1990 Camaro, lol. Although in my Camaro's defense, that was the last stop before the GM interiors got bulky and gaudy with big soap bar buttons on everything, lol.

It's not only the big buttons, but it's the quality of materials and how it's put together. Hop in any GM vehicle, and just push on things... Panels, edges, etc. and you'll get the famed GM squeak. It's just terrible. The interior is where you spend all your time in. I can't imagine ever owning one. Good lord.

I'm not even saying our fords are top notch first class. Ford is not top class by any means. That belongs to the Germans. I'm just saying GMs are THAT bad.

I'd prefer a Zo6 . This was the first Zr1 I've come across on the street though. It's a race car not a street car hence the crappy interior , rattles etc. This one had aftermarket exhaust as well (very loud).

Hate to break it to you, but the interior is crappy, rattley, etc on a ZR1 not because it's a ZR1, but because it's a Vette and a GM product in general. My above statements should have quantified that.

Like I said... 100k supercar, Chevy Cobalt steering wheel and interior. Enough said.

I love my $28,900 supercar that also rattles, semi crappy interior & goes 12.10 @ 116 back to back to back. I'm sure we have something interchangeable with a festiva , focus or something of the sort as well.

Gimme a C6 Z06 with the LS7

I agree though, GMs interior isn't exactly "top tier". I don't really care too much for interior in a sports car though.
