OK guys, as most of you know my VIN number is 590, currently in "quality hold" in wherever...

Henderson Chevrolet in Henderson (just outside of las vegas) got their 2LT V6 in on friday and they had it on display. (Just so you know I didn't take pictures because the salesmen "didn't allow photos to be taken" so whatever...) (they were also selling it for 5k over MSRP and the dealership in Centennial Pkwy was selling theirs for 10k over MSRP!!!

At anyrate.. here are my thoughts...

Leather seats.. : Can do without them! infact, glad I got the 1SS... the cheap buttons that are used to hold the seatbelt strap in place looked worthless...

Rearview mirror.. : The view out the back window takes about 20 percent of the full view of the mirror, there really isn't much vision at all, I mean, I suppose there would be enough when it comes to who is behind you and when you plan your merges, though the view really doesn't give you anything except 100 ft. of visibility distance behind you....

Seat Height, I'm 5'10" 300 lbs. the seat was comfortable to me.. and even if it had the sun roof, I still had plenty of room... (I really did not like the looks of the car with the sunroof.)

Door handle: I thought the placement of the door handle inside the car, to OPEN the door was in an odd spot, felt I had to reach past my knee to open the door...

Overall... I can't wait for my 1SS! and I can't wait to tell you all about it! Hope this helped people who ordered the v6... I think I can manage with practice and a learning curve how to manage the crappy visibility through the rear view mirror... I am absolutely sure it'll be a great car!
