You might prefer his LS3 62 Vette or his Ferrari Portofino then. The DB9 V12 was nice but also traded in.

Well as long as they avoid haptic sliders like Cadillac used a generation ago and provide a nice microfiber cloth tucked in an easy spot I could live with it.

OK. I am convinced now. I'll buy the 2nd generation cause of the premium feel signal stack.

When you get down to this level of nitpicking it shows that some people are really desperate to prove that everything about the second gen is new and improved I guess.

Timurrrr pointed out several things about the interior that he felt are improved and you guys act like he said the turn signals are a prime selling point for the second generation ,when he's clearly talking about what he felt are general improvements across the board. And considering some people were discussing if the different mechanism of the turn signal is bad or not, why is it such a big deal for him to offer his opinion that it actually feels nicer than before?
But I guess that's somehow considered nitpicking, and definitely different than pointing out the 1001 ways parts of the exterior of the car makes it look worse than the first gen over and over again. Quote:

It is a little stick that makes the signals go.

Well, I can only speak for myself but I really was just curious what he meant by a the turn stalk feeling "premium". His answer makes sense, I just don't think I would have frankly noticed the difference.

Reviews say the new turn signal is one of those obnoxious types that doesn't actually stay in position but are bumped up or down and then you have to bump it the other way to turn off. Seems like a downgrade to me. NO SALE!
