It even has the same steering wheel as the other LX cars... or very dang similar.

Of course, the Vette has a parts-bin wheel, too, but it isn't shared with the XLR (its platform mate). The wheel alone gives it a pretty Charger-ish feel...

Camaro's interior looks more promising to me, based on what I've seen so far (of both).

Super snoozorific. Makes the Mustang look good (and that ain't saying much).

It doesn't visually "wow" you, but everything does look simple. Clean. Functional. I like that aspect.

It's too bad you're probably looking at your typical Chrysler bargain-basement materials though.

It is not bad but I like my GTO interior more. I do wish the GTO had optional navigation like the Monaro did in Australia though. The G8 interior is still the sexiest though .

That's why their plastic supplier filed Chapter 11 recently

Looks just like my friends Dakota and another friends Charger, I mean every one has a style but that interior screams, "Parts Bin!"

Well, I like the exterior, but am not impressed with the interior. The interior of the new Camaro on the other hand is excellent.

Yes it did and I have a friend working at the Ram/Dakota plant and they are almost shut down until a new supplier can get up and running to fill the void. It's a major problem from his side because they had to determine how much of the production could continue and what had to be stopped.

I'm going to wait for the 09s -- I want a manual trans -- but yeah, I'm planning to order one this fall.

In a lot of new cars, it's still in the same place, but no longer has its own cover. In my GTI, when the bag blows, it blows a hole in the dash and the entire piece has to be replaced.

Lame, but a lot of manufacturers are moving to this--bigger parts revenue for them.
