Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Amazingly smooth ride, sometimes a bit floaty but I love it, I sold my BMW 530d 2006 model as it was just too firm and bumpy to drive. The C6 is a dream in comparison. But not suited to very sporty driving more relaxed style driving which is lovely it soothes away the tension of the day an antidote to our sport power based car fashion with go cart type suspension. I think the C6 is the way forward. Highly recommended.
What's it like to park?
Feels long but not much different to my BMW 530d estate, parking sensor help a lot so no problems so far.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Nothing so far. previous owner of 2 years said hardly anything went wrong mileage 50k. Curise controal stopped working was fised under garentee.
What's most practical about your car?
Large doors for easy access. Large spacious interior, cut off switch for rear doors, and all rear electrics ( there are many) great as my 2 year old boy learnt to move the front passenger seat from the rear, within in 30 seconds of getting into the rear car seat.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Velvet smooth suspension and rear heated and electric reclinning rear seats. actually the list could be quite long here.... Head up display, etc Electric spoiler, quite ride, adjsutable suspension setting.
