I recently saw a picture of the XM radio antenna on a magnetic red C6 coupe. It was black, with the XM logo, roughly round in shape, about 1 and 1/2 inches in diameter, sticking up about 1 and 1/2 inches, right in front of the hatch glass. If that is in fact, the factory installed XM antenna for the C6, then I'm going to call my dealer and cancel the XM option. It really looked like an after-thought...., really screws up the otherwise beautiful lines of the body.... As badly as I want XM radio, I don't want it bad enough to do that to my new baby.....
The pictures of the XM antenna I saw several months ago were different. That antenna was roughly cylindrical in shape, running about 2 - 3 inches in the direction of the long axis of the car, and stuck up about 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch, maybe about the size of your first finger... While not very attractive, it was much less obvious than the one I saw recently.
I just can't believe that Dave Hill and group couldn't find a more unobtrusive spot to place the antenna....... Damn shame........
