unfortunately they let the US designers have control of the interior design. cheap and crude. its okay in my $1000 3rd gen, but not in a $30K car. guess thats why I bought a snaab, my money still sorta goes to GM. pretty much had to resort to saab to get a 4dr GM sedan with a manual too...but thats another rant.

I think the CTS's interior was designed by an American and it looks better than anything it competes with IMO. The Malibu, Aura, Solstice, Sky, and trucks all look great too. I think GM will ultimately put a nice interior in it, I'm not too hung up on a preproduction car.

We're what, a year or less away from production... theres no major changes happening. All the tooling is done. Thats what the interior will look like. Big ol dorky holes for tach and speedo. Not really a fan but ohwell. We'll see how it drives. I'll take an SS w/ SPS option code (strano performance suspension) (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
