Saw something yesterday that made me feel old.
A C6 with cloudy headlight lenses.

Pop up headlights don't have that problem! Also, you can't get a factory cassette tape player in a c-6, so there's that, too.

My 04 Ranger's lights are still crystal clear. The secret? It has never been through a commercial car wash, and never been washed using anything but dish soap. I live in the deep South and it sits sweltering on my dirt driveway in the yard as I do not own a garage. Of course the paint is pretty dead but the light lenses look terrific.

Over the long term, pop-up headlights have their share of other problems. The reason for the fixed headlights on the C6 was they took 30 lbs off the weight of the car among other things.
