i thought gm was trying to do away with cheap and plastic looking? it seems like its going on strong with the new camaro. thats the first thing that comes to mind. cheap and plastic.

Dash hight and seat hight are teh two biggest problems that people complained about. Sitting low with a wide and long dashboard, combined with a heavily raked windshield made it very hard to see out of.
5th gen is much different. While there are gunslit windows, its more upright seating feels better and more civilized.

Interior is better in person. While it wont look like the CTS's interior, its also a car that has to fit a target segment of 22-35k target.
Again...please wait till you see the car in person. While some of you will never change your mind, much like my opinion with teh 4th gens, its a different car in person.

It is taller, but a few inches shorter while keeping the width. The biggest change, and one that can make the car look longer, is the larger wheel base compared to the silly small 101 inch on the 4th gen. 5th gen is over a foot longer. That means a lot less overhangs.

Again, wait till you see the car in person.
