Honestly, I think it's an awesome interior. Everything seems to be very high quality. I get a little annoyed at the little doors that cover everything (radio, GPS, cupholder, accessory compartment) but it's a pretty minor complaint. They don't really get in the way; they're just unnecessary.

You missed the most obvious one, at least in my 2007 Ltd.!

No drawer or shelf to put change.

Otherwise the interior is awesome.

I would say 2nd place for sunglasses. Also, it'd be nice if there was a 12v power outlet closer to the dash for a radar detector. I had to hardwire mine to keep the cord from being in the way.

The only disappointment is the lack of fold-down rear seats. That is a major item for us as I need to use our Volvo XC-70 anytime I want to go snowboarding.

Fold-down seats, change tray and the leather is so-so.

It'd be nice if there was a quick way to always see the exterior temp and the interior hvac settings on the models with nav without having to hit the climate button.

Centered around the stereo and H/AC controls. I have no Bluetooth, but I do have a cassette?
And to hook BT up, Oh the horrors. Having but one access. outlet hidden in the glove box with no cord slot? Some of these things make me wonder.

But I've heard enough about the JBL sound and Nav system to make me count my blessings. All I have to do is find someone that will cut out my cassette so I can use the neato door for something useful.
