Japanese interiors aren't the best either--compare a G35 to an A4, or even an IS300 to A4/BMW. But the C6 interior still looks early 90s, back when everything looking plastic was the norm--Japanese are less behind and are in the late-nineties.
Back on topic, C6's interior is definnitely not 40k luxury-level quality. Performance is 100k level though, so it balances out.

They redid the interior for the c5 and c6, now it looks a lot better. Your fanboyism doesn't let you look at the fact that the Corvette is an awesome car for the money. Who the hell cares about the interior when you are pulling past cars on the track that cost 2-3x more then the corvette?
Corvette just pulls an 11 sec run against a modified luxo car which pulls an 11.5:
Luxo: I may not be able to outrun you in anyway, I may not be as reliable as you either, BUT at least I have the better interior!

And yes, since the majority of the time spent with the car is in the interior, the inside is a big deal. You don't drive the car tied to the hood outside staring at the contours.

You've obviously never driven a Corvette have you? That **** puts a smile on your face. I could be sitting on a bucket in the car, and as long as I was well harnessed, I wouldn't mind. The interior really doesn't matter if the car is well worth it. I see you didn't bring up the **** interior of the NSX. I wonder why?

If you are experienced in handling RWD cars, and have snow tires on, sure.

I already did say Japanese interiors are behind the likes of BMW and Audi. Dangit, read the post before you snap back a vacuous reply.

Oh and here is the real kicker. Highway MPG for the C6? 28MPG baby.
GM wins!
