This is a big improvment to me.

The STS interior looks 100x better in black than the cream color. It looks plain in too cream. Those pics of the Vette at speed also give a much better idea of the final car.

The Z06 looks awesome but STS-V is just as lame looking as the CTS-V. They're finally figuring out that people want performance...maybe next time around they'll figure out that people want their performance in a pretty package too. Thumbs up to GM for their intent with the STS-V...thumbs down for that ugly ass car in the pics.

A couple of comments from the photo page:

Still don't like the steering wheel in the Vette as much as others.
Are the Vette's wheels a knock off of a Ferrari?
There is a lack of buttons on the M3's wheel- interesting.
I like the new Sport Trac except the lights
Not sure about the HHR- some I like, some may take some getting use to.
Love the GR1 obviously.
Don't like the red seats in the Mustang.
Viper interior body colored trim has got to go- nice car otherwise.
Note to Chrysler- BUILD THE FIREPOWER!!!!!!!!!
Love the new Acura.

That's it for now.

STS is a much smaller car than an E55. The rear seat is surprisingly tight I thought.
