When you press active handling button and traction contol is set to off a small C5 with skid marks appears in orange it is definately a C5 and not a C6 with that big butt!!

That is just to show you your C6 with the AH off will drive more like a C5 dummy!

Heck that's nothing. Evidently '09 Z06's come with a complete C5Z interior, and mirror and antenna:

I've noticed this before but upon closer inspection I don't think it's a C5. Look harder and see what you think.
