That's why my C5 had light grey and black interior. That camel looking crap is horrid IMO.

Yeah the C5's are noisy too. A friend of mine bought one and proceeded to dynomat the entire interior after the first drive as well as ditching the run flats. He says it's alot quieter now. One of my biggest complaints on the Corvette is the interior. You spend all that money and you still end up with that plasticky looking interior.

Cons:

Interior is horrible, if I wanted a BMW I would have bought one

Stereo is WEAK for the sticker price

Interior wind noise is horrible on the highway

Interior Road Noise is horrible.

If you did want a BMW interior and no wind noise, then yes you are correct you should have bought a BMW. Instead your in one of the most sought after cars on the road, its a Corvette. Enough said.
