And if the interior is at least approaching what we might expect as "normal" for BMW or other German brands, then GM is going to have a home run on its hands.

I saw an interview with the lead interior design guy for the C8 Vette, and he said there's 0 plastic on the interior. For the base model.

If true, that's very different than the typical approach...I am excited to go and see one, whenever that happens.

For the M8...I am just not in the target market for this kind of car. The price tag is nuts for a BMW and I think the F82 is too big, so this is just...not anything I would want to own.
