I could not stomach reading past page 3... If flat tires, garage door opener programming, wheel alignment and paint issues are the first problems to come to mind on a brand new $49k first year production car, then a readjustment of reference may be needed. Is there any mention of catastrophic engine failures? If not, then it is already better engineered and built than 75% of its competitors. I imagined substituting four "engineering" brands for "C7" in the thread and it would have complimented them. Rather than rely on internet threads, I will wait until I can physically inspect one and see one all apart myself. The Vette cabin may have beeen low rent, but so were the competitors. Could anyone care to explain a 996TT interior? It reminded me of the materials used in a 1992 Chevy Cavalier. A person could've died from toxic melting plastic fumes on a hot summer day. And, if I remember correctly, that was not a budget minded production car. And what about melting interiors on a Ferrari? Are you kidding me?! That one problem alone is worth 500 pages of whining on an internet forum. They could not figure out how to keep an interior from melting in direct sunlight? Did these same engineers also design the SMG masterpiece for BMW? Or the IMS for Porsche? Or the VANOS mess? The GTR diff? I personally could be happy with a random Japanese beater and a collection of vintage dinosaurs. I have no real interest in buying a modern Vette, BMW, Ford, Porsche or Audi. Having said that, why isn't the same criteria used to evaluate all of these cars? It is absolutely baffling... LS
