Probably partially the lighting. I think the tailights fitting more flush vs how the first time gen out more that throws me off.

The only thing I can see potentially hurting sales is the price increase.
If they really wanted to sell more units they'd offer an upmarket trim with turbo.

They can't do a turbo. Check out the forced induction forum. After 8 years they're still not reliable.

Found a new thing for y'all to complain about

The center console is completely different between the MT and Auto. The MT looses the cubby hole / cup holder..

I think the rear can improve a lot with the addition of a wing on the trunk.

This is probably too much but...

Eh, that cup holder is in the most useless spot anyway. They might still have cup holder insert in the armrest when it’s open.

Not really a fan for the exaggerated side pod things under the door, I get fixated by them and can’t see the rest of the car…

But, After seeing these Side skirts hiding most of it I could find the rest easier to view and a good way to relieve my objections.

The wing and drop is maybe a bit much though.

That's my thinking - any water bottles or cups will be in the way while shifting. That being said, that blank expanse of plastic looks pretty blah.

If one were so inclined, I imagine that chunk of the console could probably be swapped out anyway.
