A local dealer has a nice 2008 C6 Base for sale. Sure it has an automatic (flappy paddles), but it’s a Vette so no biggie, right?

Kinja'd!!!

Looks good. Nice rims, too!

Kinja'd!!!

Nothing that can’t be removed if you don’t like it, right?

Kinja'd!!!

Oh, that can be replaced cheaply. The leather driver seat looks to be in great shape, especially with less than 20K on the odo.

See.

Kinja'd!!!

Oh my.

...Vinyl faux wood stick on....

Momentary lapse of judgement. That can be removed, too, and replaced with...

Kinja'd!!!

Why!?

This should be faux carbon fiber trim if one must. Just like the outer trim. NOT FAUX WOOD!

Kinja'd!!!

This.

THIS is Nancy Kerrigan-levels of WHY!?

WHY!? WHY!? WHY!?

I can forgive it. The interior on those is painfully dull stock.

They just wanted their weekend car to look more like their DeVille

The automatic gave it away.

20 mins invested by the dealer would really payoff on this one....

I’m more concerned about the duct tape by the driver’s door. Makes me wonder what else they used for maintenance...

I think the driver’s seat looks like the miles are low because the driver got in and out a lot. I’d rather have a CTS-V.

I’d want it dull. I might even be okay with the automatic transmission, if it had positive, well-defined shift points, and good dependability reviews.

Gorilla Glue when Super Glue wasn’t enough, and they were out of stock of Flex Seal at Walmart?

I guess that’s a bit better than just WD40 and tape.

I like the idea of a super grand touring Corvette with wood, metal and leather on the inside but this isn’t it at all lol

Why would you take a corvette and put cheap tasteless shit like that on it? Ugh.
