The button to open the center console is just where my elbow happens to come to a rest. I've modified my driving position a bit to accomodate it but I can't shorten or lengthen my arms.
All in all I think it was a relatively fair and positive review. I love my car and there are very few vehicles I would trade it for at the moment...but I wouldn't complain if Nissan lowered the price a bit due to it's lack of 'features'.  |
didnt aim to offend anyone here, just my own experience with my Z i find it very hard to open up that center console accidentally unless i am full on leaning on the thing, as for features i'm pretty sure nissan is working on upgrading the features across their entire line up as evidenced by the new 2013 altima which now comes standard with blue tooth even on the base models, wouldnt be suprised to see the next Z get a few upgrades in that area as well. honestly though as mentioned by others already i have no interest in a whole bunch of upgraded stereo equipment and electronics in a sports car. while it is nice to have the option of having that i dont think it should make or break the deal as the reviewer suggests by pointing to other comparable cars that have those options as standard. heck i would bet that is the reason why the gen coupes are heavier than the Z's is because of all that extra electronics that they bundle along with them as standard. in any case its just my opinion by itself and nissan will ultimately do what it thinks the consumers want which is fine by me...i just hope they still make a base+sport model on the next generation of the Z's that has as little electronics as possible.
