To say the least I and other Corvette enthusuasts were disappointed in what we saw two weeks ago. The interior is so cheap looking! To compare this car inside and out to a SL 500 or Lexus or Jag is really asking for trouble in the sense of sales. A sample survey done at this showing showed 95% of all people will attended agreed that the car was more than $20,000 over priced ( compared to the CTS which has similar looks and setup ) for what you were purchasing. Everyone agreed that this car is under powered for its weight. Everyone agreed that this XLR will hurt C6 sales in one fashion or another.
And for those who wondered about the engine setup, it did have the Northstar as stated previously. 320hp and low side torque on this heavy car (between 3600 - 3700lbs as provided by Caddy people) means a real slug on performance of the line.
No one liked the overall appearance too. My best guess is that this will be short lived production with under 3,000 made, if they are lucky. Expect to see the C6 in March or April, 2004 hit the dealers.
This is Caddy last chance............... :nopity :sleep
