I'm sorry, but I have to disagree. To me, the c5 looks more like the pontiac

I think the c6 interior is very nice, not ferrari nice, but you're not paying ferrari prices.

For a sports car I wouldn't ask for anymore, however I know that many people would rather the inside of their car be nice and the performance to suffer.

Why is it that when there is a Vette vs GTR thread and the vette wins. The topic of interiors always comes up?

Yes, are you even looking at the pics you are posting. That looks just like the C5 interior.

I'd still rather have one of the other "loser" cars. Track numbers and stats only mean so much. What happened to looks, design, FEEL, quality...Seriously, how many people actually track their cars?

The center console and radio stack is what's killing it for me. HVAC console is just cheap looking, I don't really have another way of saying it. It looks like an after thought and it takes away from the rest of the design.

It's not bad, but I would expect more in a $100k++ car. Again, wrapping some stuff in leather doesn't make it a well thought out interior. They are headed in the right direction though, so hopefully they'll stay the course.

And the 350Z picture should be taken down. Nissan is no better than Chevrolet when it comes to interiors.

Things in common with C6: large flat dash on the passenger side, similar center console lines (squarish separation above the vents), dual center vents, and the exact same steering wheel

Things in common with C5: they are both black.

Interiors are subjective anyway so it's stupid to argue it. Either you like it or you don't.

Yeah, whatever, if I could afford a viper right now I'd have one of those. Everyone knows they have the nicest interiors anyway

Funny thing you are right and wrong. If you take the C6 interior it does look like a pontiac interior if you match it with a pontiac within the same year. But if you take a C5 interior, it looks like the interior of the pontiac years at that time, ex: pontiac firebird, grand prix, bonneville, etc.

Yea that's true, most GM cars follow the same lines for the same years. I'm just a Corvette hater.
