I like the other one better in my opinion especially for around the same price.

I would like it if it looked better. The sliding is nice for the cupholder.

i like the fact that it's raised, and that I can still have my coffee mug or water bottle in the cup holder. will definitely buy.

Yeah, meh... It should be lower profile and taper off at the front instead of at the rear. This isn't the official Japanese one is it? It's just a Scion domestic adapter type of deal, right?

It has the "after-thought" look...

FRSupra 02-07-2014 02:45 PM

It has a new base that adapts over the existing center base. Not a very good design, never really fully conceal's everything. Sort of cheap but I have not seen one in person.

I don't see why people are so obsessed with a center arm rest o.o

It's comfortable, looks much better than just a pit with cup holders, and you can conceal things easier, such as change, sunglasses, etc.

Fucking comedy. A whole ten bucks at Ikea get's you that same thing.

Id have to disagree tbh .. I have my iphone sticking straight up occasionally bc i have other things in that pit and my elbow hits the iphone - and its sticking out like half an inch
I'd imagine that my elbow would be hitting the center armrest over and over when i shift and would drive me nuts!
I'd rather save the few hundred on something really useful :/

The full folding EU 86 version one is cheaper and way better looking and functional IMO.

Swing and a miss! Good idea but poor execution.
