Unfortunately, the rest of the interior still suffers from the cheapish
appearance and lack of quality we criticized on the earlier models. The
interior design is slick and modern, restrained in its lack of frivolous
decoration, but the materials are still too plasticky and dull-colored. We
especially don't care for the standard grayish, pin-pricked, nickel trim on the
dash, center console and doors. You can get genuine burled walnut, instead;
it's a $495 option on the V8 Sport and standard on Premium models. And despite
the simplicity of the climate control, it's still hard to operate without
looking, and any time with our eyes off the road is not good.
