Question Best feature of C7

Just seeing how this "poll" feature works. Too bad you can't pick more than one or rank them all.

I'll rank them.

1. Short throw shifter.
2. 17" wheels
3. Z rated tires
4. Color keyed door handles.
5. Steering wheel.
6. Stainless steel, rubber studded pedals.
7. Leather shift knob.
8. Exhaust tip.
9. Sill appliques. the regular sills are much, much nicer.

The main reson I bought the C7 package was the wheel/tire combo. I didn't know about the short throw shifter at that time.

Are we certain the exhaust is different?? Looks the same to me as all other non-C7 coupes.

yes, i can honestly say that i think the exhaust is slightly fatter. i think it has two pipe ends within the overall oval. not sure if the standard has that... well, i guess i'm not sure about this feature anymore either.

i'd rank them as follows:
1 wheels
2 tires
3 the rest, i don't really care.
4 had to purchase winter tires

The exhaust tips are the same design, but the C7 tip is noticeably larger.

Since I didn't buy it, I shouldn't comment on what's good about the C7....except that it is a great value.

It wasn't yet available on the parts list when I ordered my car in May...and I might have gone for it if...

The one factor that sends chills up my spine is how much you guys will have to pay for replacement Z-rated, super low profile 17" tires.
