I keep wondering why they used game console control pads on the Toyota steering wheel

if simpler means better i guess it is better :-).

but overall, looking at the pics posted above, it looks cheaper... those cheap gloveboxes in non-luxury cars hurt my eyes every time i see them.

This is what it looked to me on the road...bulging out in the wrong spots.

^^^ lol...I think they fixed the styling of the m37/56 as the Altima looks much better to me, not as thin, tall and
Fishy/feminine.

I'm so happy it stopped trying to look like the GS!
