You just jinxed yourself. You have to go out and do three clockwise donuts while spitting out the window.

Have you missed the fact over the past 5 years that my C6 is a vert? Haven't driven a C7 because I hit my head on the roof of every model, but this is the C6 forum.

Well then just remove all rear view mirrors! Car will look more sleek, and your windshield view will be better too! The only reason for rear view mirrors is to watch the guy you blew away crying...

I’ve never shoulder checked on any car I’ve ever driven, and I’ve taught all of my kids this same way my dad taught me in the mid 80s. I was taught you never need to see the side of your car because....well because you already know it’s there. I adjust my side mirrors about half out away from center as he does in the video, but I always lean forward to check my side mirrors. That eliminates any blind spot. No dumb head over my shoulders, turning my head lol.
