Comments
Buyers must be turned off by the excessive wind noise at high speeds, contributing to a feeling of insecurity for the driver. In high-end exotics, wind noise conditions remain muted at very high speeds. GM has always struggled with this problem in a lot of their products.
High levels of wind noise? Are you kidding me?
First of all, that is not an issue with the C7.
Second, even if it were an issue, you would not hear it on a test drive of until way after the customer has taken the car home.
Third, comparing the Corvette to a high-end exotic is not wise.
That said, mid engined C8 is coming… so… there go all of those arguments.
And what other GM products have had wind issues aside from the trucks and SUVs?
