'Vette Looks Like a Porsche

Did Porsche lose one of their interior designers lately?

Get a load of this.

OK, then I'll point out at least two similarities.
The overlapping tach and speedo, and the configuration of the air outlet grille in the center of the dash. Both seem very Porsche-like to me.
It also has a big round thing for adjusting the orientation of the front wheels, and a vertical stalk in the center of the cockpit for selecting the options in the roadspeed management device. But then, many vehicles seem to have these.

Improved?? I dunno.. looks about the same as the 07 Z06 I have been driving.
Maybe the materials will be improved.

I was going to say, I didn't see any changes jump out at me.

Looks pretty much the same as last year. My '06 Z06 doesn't have the radio controls on the steering wheel, but that's OK. Didn't buy the car for the stereo. So I have to agree, nothing jumps out at me either.
