Now to find a way to justify the cost.

Why do Corvettes always have the worst looking steering wheels?

It's a good looking car.

The basic shape is nice, but the details are overdone - that whole rear end is really awful

they aspired to something because there are a lot of 599 design elements, don't you think? fussy rear end, though and i bet that gets running updates about two years in. the rest of the exterior looks really nice.

what i hated about the c6 design was the headlights. for some reason, they looked too much like one of those mitsu 3000gt cars. chintzy.

the new front end looks much nicer, IMHO.

who knows how it will drive. and i need to see the interior in person.

two huge caveats for me (steering feel and interior quality).
