GM may have been confused with what the objective of this vehicle is. Maybe because the last z28 was too narrow in scope with its creature comforts, they decided to include some of those in this model. My things is that this is gonna be a really low volume option on an already low volume vehicle. If you're gonna make a track car, make a no-apologies track car....ditch the backseat altogether, get rid of the power seats, or put a basic stereo in there. Ford got it right. The 350r is a track car and for all of its lack of amenities, I'd still drive that thing around town without embarrassment. GM was just trying to please to many people on this one. Clearly, some guys like the look of the car, so hey.

I wouldn't be one bit embarrassed to own this ZL1 1LE car. Not in the least and I'm fairly sure Chevy has a goal in mind. Only thing is that it's only available with the stick. But they did that for a reason which I suspect they only plan to sell a few to make the car legit on the track.
