I like it a lot! My son will like the last one, he's 5.

Hard top or vert, that's gonna be a hard one...

So what are the chances the interior actually comes out that nice? Im loving the two tone and all the nice stitching. Im still buying a hardtop, but the vert looks very nice

Meh, call me crazy but don't like the interior. Love technology and all but some things just look better the old way. Guess that little digital display will scroll through all the missing gauges? Don't like not being able to see at least temperature at all times. Maybe all the fancy gizmos will appeal to the ricer crowd, and I can't say that's a good thing.

Damn that's nice! Its getting shown for the first time tomorrow! I just got some info from my local dealership. I'm kind of dissapointed having the LS2 in there though. Not that its not a good engine, but its going to be old news in 2009!

That is a dumbass set-up for the gauges. How the hell do you drive 60 mph? Unless it has a HUD like the Corvette.

I think they should stick with a Corvette or Sky/Solstice set-up. The two huge split pods remind me to much of my Toyota Scion's stupid *** gauge set-up.

Come on those are badass. They are definately old school IROC styled!!!

Hell I'd stick those on a car. I assume though that they weigh an abosolute TON though. I mean that is a lot of metal on that wheel.

I figure something like 35 pounds at least. They are wide and they have a big diameter. I wouldn't be surprised if they weighed more either.

Unless they are at least a 1.5k option and they are made of some magical mag/aluminum combo. Those aren't going to be on a base V6 model.
