I actually like it as GM isn't known for decent looking interiors.:)

Now the quality of parts used might be a different story once it is in production.

Not bad, though I'm not into colored interiors. The only proper color for interiors is dark grey or black.... in all cases, i all cars. :D
Agreed. :thumbup: At most, the seats can be accented with mellow, understated colors, but that's about it....

Looks nice though, I'm impressed. The stereo could use a bit of work, but very nice overall.

Generally true. Porsche's Terra Cotta is nice, though.

Just because something is two tone does not mean that it is *nice*. I think that it is the usual chevy hard-shiny-plastic-crap, just in something different than black...that steering wheel leather looks garbage and the shifter is no better..maybe by 2012 an american car company can produce an interior as nice as one in a 1998 a4...

C'mon General--Thats pretty much a 94 Mustang interior...go back to the drawing board.
Surely you jest. This is European styling of the finest caliber, comparable to exotics such as the Qvale Mangusta!

looks like a different color combo of the saturn aura interior. Nothing new or shocking since those are both the same car. I think it is gonna turn into saturn= opel as is, chevy = cheep opel.

This fits GM's market stratigy since in europe Chevy is there cheep brand, and opel is there mainstreem brand.

Mustang, Saturn Aura, Opel whatever... It still looks 100x better than the current Malibu's interior. Chevy/GM must have the look and feel nailed if they are showing the interiors so early.
it can look 1000x better than the current malibu's interior, it still needs to be BETTER than Toyota or Honda or VW, you know the CURRENT cars it compeats with. Again its the same interior as on the saturn aura, just cheaper.
