Unofficial '6th Gen Awesomeness' thread

We know there are plenty of things you love about the 6th gen, why not concentrate them here instead of spreading them around the rest of the site?

CLEARLY my fave is the track day, shifting hand cooling system for the M6 guys:

i.e. placement of the large dual A/C vents right behind the shifter

LOL

When I first saw the 5th gen in person, I knew I had to have it. I'm an impulsive SOB. The 6 gen captured the essence of the 5th for me and refined it to something that looks more expensive and sophisticated. For me this is where the awesomeness is, I know a lot of people want just a bare bones muscle car, but let's face it, technology and comfort sell, and this thing looks like it will knock both departments out of the park. To me it is an ideal evolution of the 5th gen, not without a couple things I would change, but overall just a beautiful, crisp machine. Camaro fans should be ecstatic GM has put as much effort into this car as they have.

Taillights
No more shark gills
5-spoke wheels
Heated/vented seats
Heated steering wheel
Push button start (and presumably passive entry/exit)
Configurable instrument cluster

Selectable color ambient lighting

Those are my initial positives, anyway. My negatives will go in the other thread, but overall I like it so far!

While most here will disagree,I am getting one with EVERY single creature comfort! We can now have it ALL! Thank god the awful boston acoustics system is gone. Yea bose is no champ, but it sounds pretty damn good in my wifes 2014 impala. Chevy wasnt kidding when they said evolutionary. Interior looks similar to gen5, but MUCH improved. Exterior looks very much the same, but more modern.

I love the interior!!! It does have a more athletic build like GM stated. Corvette inspired taillights. I'm happy with it. I want one bad

My wife had the Bose in her 2011 Malibu LTZ, and it sounded way better than the Boston Acoustics!!!
