Default Question about middle storage console

Hey Guys,

So I had my car in for service yesterday (got a remote starter installed in my 300h), and they gave me a 2012 ES 350 loaner. One of the first things I noticed was the way the storage console in the middle is set up (compared to the console on the 300h).

I usually keep my phone/sunglasses/and road driving glasses in the middle storage console in my 300h, and at times (because the top only goes back so far) my elbow keeps hitting the top, and can be a little uncomfortable, especially when you are searching for something while driving.

In the 2012, the top of the storage console actually slides back halfway, and it also opens up fully so I have no issues reaching into the bin at all.

Its not a deal breaker, but I just wish they would have stuck with that design, than this new one. Or at least allowed the top of the storage console to go further back.

Does anyone else have issues with this?

Yes. Makes it awkward to reach in there.
