The interior is cheap looking and creeks. The seats are not comfy by anymeans. I dont see what people see in them really other then a cheap plastic car to go fast in. I have been in a couple of the new ones and there even worse. $90,000 for a ZO6 at one time. HAHAHA They can keep it. Ill take a used F355 and go slower. Corvette is NO WHERE near what it once was.
I would have thought that the C6es would be well regarded - even by Corvette owners/fans?

I don't think any series of Corvette are any better than what they're making today. Perhaps I am dead wrong. Again, I don't feel comfortable in one, and to me it seems difficult to manuever in traffic because of their low-slung body, and lowered visibility to other cars on the road with you.
