Default C7 Hatch

I am not sure if everyone have seen the hatch area?

Thanks for posting this shot. I was wondering how it was engineered to open with those fixed quarter windows.

I like the handle to close it. Nice touch.

Hm.... The wheel wells aren't carpeted? I guess cost savings?

There is not much glass in the back. I guess there are camara's
everywhere so you can see your blind spots. Right??

Yup, if you recall it disappeared in 2008 MY after the quite lady lawsuit. This time designers put the handle away from the trunk edge. So one needs to extract (her) hand before closing the hatch!!! **









**Unbelievable how much of non-sense our good Engineers at GM have to deal with in a daily basis. Hang in there folks. You are doing a great job and all of us appreciate it.

Water spots on the black plastic under hatch and it has not even been in the rain.

How much you asking for her? And are you sure she will fit back there?
