Underwhelmed by ZL1 convertible in person...

I was at the Palm Beach auction and surprised to see the ZL1 Vert there. I had been looking foreword to seeing one in person. I owned a 2010 SS which I really liked. I think the new steering wheel is horrendous. While I agree the old one didn't feel great - it looked retro cool. The new one is right out of the check parts bin. just looks cheap and out of place. The Nav system also looked chew and out of place.

This is what drives me nuts about GM. They design something cool then they go to the parts bin and start throwing things in that were never part of original design....I also thought the suede felt very cheap also.

I still may get one but I was really let down - then I walked over to see the new GT500 - everything is cohesive - no parts bin steering wheel - cool seats, dash, cue ball shifter etc...

I think they have made the camaro worse ...

Now the 60th Anniversary Vette was stunning - here is a car they made look better! after years gone by but the interior also sucks on this car - parts bin steering wheel also.

Just my thoughts -
