I'm getting extremely tired of those steering wheels.

I....I....I like it. Any word if the US model will be any different? However, there does appear to be alot of hard plastics but it looks to fit with its market segment.

Except for the seats, I like it. Give me the 2.0L turbo version of it.

While I applaud GM's efforts to differentiate their interiors, I am not so sure that I like the outcome.

GM is putting in work!!

Id never would have thought that this vehicle would be under 20K. The blue fabric is not completely doing it for me, but there is so much potential.

Crazy. I find the new GM's very classy (Malibu, CTS, G8, Acadia and the new Orlando Concept thread I just posted etc) yet a majority of the new Hondas and Toyotas look like it came straight out of an Anime (Civic, Highlander, Camry, Element etc).

Is that fabric on the dashboard and around the air vents? Hard to tell how good the interior is looking at such heavily-photoshopped and glamorized pictures. Real-life photos are needed to accurately judge the interior.

Haha, my friend's 240SX had fabric on the dash. It was awful.
