USA 2011 Differences from earlier Gen 10's

No automatic light control/but after years of having the DRL's that was suppose to be on at less brightness while driving they fixed that now they are at half brightness! But miss the fact that they no longer turn on or off automatically.

Steering wheel is no longer Leather wrapped.

No more Optitron gauges.

Only 1-12 Volt power point they eliminated the one in the center console.

There is no longer those little cubby slots on the sides of the center console. The ones that use to be on there were use less but instead of eliminating them they really needed to make them larger.

Radio is much nicer now and you would think that they would put the clock function on the large display but no they still have that little dinky clock down at the bottom of the console that makes you totally look away from the road.

The 5 spoke wheels are much nicer than the older 10 spoke ones.

They removed the S badge on the front,

Headlights are somewhat changed.

Tail lights are much nicer now.

They eliminated those deep round reflectors on the rear bumper and replaced them with retangular ones that aren't as deep. Nice touch!

Moved the tire monitoring reset button to the bottom of the dash almost under the steering wheel.

^And the 2.4 engine.
Only differences in the 2011 in the US is the upgraded stereo with bluetooth and the "flat bottomed" steering wheel in the S. I'm not a big fan of how it looks....I hope the 11th gen looks better in a few years.
