Just ordered an ultramarine, but I'm planning to swap the black seats for something else -- it's too dark in there. I'm not getting a red exterior, though, so that color won't quite work for me
Definitely am worried about creating an interior that's "aesthetically challenged", so open to suggs/horror stories if anyone's come across them....
I do not understand the 'fisher-price' opinions. I mean, sure, there's a part of me that wants the car to look like the inside of a Battlestar Galactica viper (because ... screw 'race-car' ... spaceship!), and there's another part of me that finds the huge flat screen in a Tesla cool (so ... big!). But I don't want to be hunting for toggle switches or staring at monitors while driving. I was test driving a 2014 mazda3 this weekend, and it took the sales guy half a minute to figure out how to turn the radio off. Maybe my interest in aesthetics takes a back seat to practicality, but give me simple, manual controls any day.
Not a fan of the big piece of random chunk of plastic in front of the passenger seat. The passenger-side seat is also somewhat dangerous to anyone sitting behind. Not only does it wind up traveling too far rearward, it does so as you try to raise the seats after letting someone into the back -- whoops, sorry sweetie! For most of you, that's probably not a problem, but in my family, those back seats are usable (I'm the tallest member of the family at 5'4", and while I'm not swimming back there, it seems fine for commutes).
The red stitching is a nice accent, until you try to replace the seats.
Ceiling liner is a little cheap. I could wish for something a little softer up there. And it turns to glass right over the rear seats. Gotta wonder what that does in a crash.
I might have some minor gripes (well, except for the 'any color as long as it's black' bs that so many other manufacturers also seem to have for some reason), but the interior works pretty well for me. Maybe it's because I'm coming from a 21 year old car, and have not just a little contempt for some of the newer cockpit designs on current crop of cars?
Keep the interior pics coming, especially if any of you have dabbled with gray, white, tan, pale blue, or any other lighter colors on those seats!
