I will admit that as awesome as a piece of technology this is driving wise, looks wise, goo features, etc... It cannot compare to the craftsmanship of high end European made counter parts in terms of build quality and fine attention to detail.

Also the dealership service techs and mechanics that you will deal with are less trained and qualified. Even the "biggest" dealership (Criswell for example) will have the same ones that work on "crapper" Chevys, touch your $80k+ Corvette..... Can't tell you how much headache I had to go through to get them them to get the installations right; something you will almost NEVER see at Mercedes.

Most chevrolet dealerships won't install aftermarket parts at all so you actually got lucky there.

You have to look at what you paid for the car vs those you are comparing it to.

I'm sure Mercedes is different. I've heard about their service strategies.

Audi on the other hand uses the same techs for everything, as most places do. One of my buddies is an audi tech. He works on everything that comes through the door as well as overflow work from the VW dealership.

Here are a couple of interior pics

wow i do not like that interior color at all and i dislike it even more with the paint job you picked.

Well, guess it's a good thing you don't own one then, am I right?

Looks better in person btw. Pictures never do these colors justice.

Fair enough. Edited my previous comment out. BTW, picture has link in description to URL with my license plate containing my name

I'm not a fan of stickers on a car. What am I going to put how much HP the car has? a logo? I find stickers/stripes tacky. No offense

Here's another angle of the car on my drive way, the Red calipers and visibility of the seats from the outside helps offset the red interior. I think it looks good, but each to their own.

nah like some grandsport stripes that are red. nothing goofy just talking about normal vette decals.

They looks really bad in person. I considered. But the "badge" on the side vent is just GAWDY as fawk. See below

Hash Marks (on the fendor) would only work on a black car IMO.

yeah those do not go well with it at all.

didn't like the stringer stripe or z06 stripes either? i feel like it in red would look good on your car.
