Jay Leno is spot on

Jay Leno on Corvette interiors:

"... I always get annoyed at these people who say, 'Oh, I don't like the interior.' Well, shut up! Go get a living room set then. What do you want to pay for? Do you want to pay for performance, or do you want to pay for faux carbon fiber and all that other nonsense? "

For the price, I definitely agree. However, you would think differently if you paid $150k.

Re: Jay Leno is spot on

Well one shouldn't buy a car that has a more refined and luxurious interior than ones own home, anyway.

So the Corvette is spot on in understating it for their buyers!

There are some very luxurious living rooms in mobile homes these days. Not that I've been in any of them.

Great reply

It's interesting to see the snobbish replies and the cultural ignorance, some people seem forced to exhibit.

Antonio, ease up on the wording, your last post can be offensive to those that have shared a different opinion in this thread. There is no need for that.

Hi Anthony,

I think that we were just trying to poke fun at the Corvette and their owners, not Americans in general. And all in good fun.

And sorry if my post was offensive. I was just trying to tease you.

I was a new Corvette owner myself, albeit, over 10 years ago. 1994 Corvette, blk/blk
