i know.

whenever i'm at the dealer, i sit inside the cobalt, the HHR, the C6s and the new GMT900s. it's sad that the new GMT900s have interiors that are so much better than the cars.

which is also why i'm quite pleased at how the bread and butter Malibu is appearing to be so nice inside.

btw: the steering wheel is a corporate piece. it is in the C6 and so forth.....
