'07 Dash!?

Jeez, Who has seen the new '07 dash setup??? I knew i shouldve waited, it looks amazing, and it comes with the ipod aux. jack which is a nice plus. I just got my 06 ss/sc and i'm kinda regretting not waiting for the '07. Check out the pics at the chevy website, let me know what you guys think....

Pfft, you say "I wish I had an 07" but all those 07s (err... me) are going to say "I wish I got the 08 or 09" when they turbo it or something. haha every year things get better!

If you put your order in early enough, I put mine in May, then you can get one. I have been told that only a few hundred are being made, though that may have been dealer bs.

This new dash set up is a copy of many HHR components in an effort for GM to save money. I personally like the '06 better. The stereos that GM is using is a "silver box" with different faceplates for each vehicle. My feeling, if you like the '07 stereo better, keep an eye on Ebay b/c someone will be selling one and it should be a direct swap. There is a cable for the '06 to hook up an MP3 player....follow the link.
