Flat twoers at that. How it can take this long to deliver a car from week 51 is beyond me.
To the OP, there's several comparison threads in the C7 section.
For me it was less a financial decision more wanting to be out of the C6 whilst it had retained good value and before it started accumulating large bills.
As a car C7 is superior in every respect, most importantly dynamically. It goes around corners, yes, still a barge but it does a good job a disguising it. Then there's the interior and tech it's all moved on.

What is the hold up with you car? Surely they could have driven it over by now.
The the OP I would say there is quite a significant difference. Go along to a dealer and test drive one to see for yourself

Jump form C5 to C6 was huge.
Better spec, faster, reliable.
But C6 to C7 isn't as extreme. Updated cabin, improved dynamics, but thats about it.
£25k for a family car with 0-60 of 2.99seconds is pretty tough to beat

I say yes:
For me
+'s
More refined yet more aggressive , i.e. drives slower smoother, calmer, yet is more of a hooligan when you want it to be.
Looks
tech bits, move on etc.
Options
Exhaust
-'s:
Not a V10
Less op to add lots and lots of extra BHP ( if thats your thing )
Some of the tech makes it a little less engaging ( I drove an RS4, loved it as it engaged me like the C6 )
Electric steering, can feel a bit unnatural in my opinion. Thats that main neg I would say.
