a Rivera...via a Custom 24, Strat and Les Paul
Couldn't agree more (I personally don't think it's a fail but quite nicely done); the fact that's its from the same company in the same price range with similar performance leaves little excuses for GM with the vette.

YES! It looks good from a distance but there is a bunch of shiny plastic and cheap leather in that interior. Look closely a the seems on the dash and seats and at the seat bolsters themselves. WAY better than a Vette but still nothing that I would want in my car and having owned a V, I can tell you that it is 100% GM. Heck, my 2500HD Chevy truck had less finish and quality issues then the V.

+1, the fake carbon fiber looks trashy as well.
