I get it, you have to throw the faithful a bone every now and again. That said, I think both of us know that a lot of those non-owners who are complaining are often non-owners because of the interior. Perfect example? I really like the new Grand Sport on paper. However, there is no way I would spend that kind of money on a car with that level of interior.
I know this is a horse that gets beaten to death more often than not, but I think GM continually underestimates how much of a difference this would make for the Vette. In fact, IMO, for just a little more money the Vette could unseat the Porsche as the default global sports car enthusiasts everywhere drool over IMO, but things like the interior conspire to stop htat....just my two cents

Again, I get it. That said, I really do think the only folks who can overlook the Vette's interior are those who are already hardcore GM enthusiasts. The base interior is terrible and the upgraded interior is barely tolerable, genuinely. A base Audi TT has an interior that puts the best Vette interior to shame, which is wholly inexcusable particularly when some of those Vette's top 100k. A 911 interior makes the threads inside any Vette look like something you put together in your garage.
If GM is smart mission number one for C7 will be a truly competitive interior.
