It's great to hear the comments about the production interior. Make all our spouting about how great it was worthwhile.

The dash is the textured plastic? Like a middle school lunch room tray kind of texture? I hope the texture is a bit better and/or classier. If not, then that could be an issues for some, depending on the rake of the windshield. I cannot drive my car on a sunny day without sun glasses on because the frick'n glare of the dash up on the windshield is horribly distracting. My wife's car has a smooth dash, a more severe raked windshield, and the glare is barely noticeable; it is not so bad that your eyes are drawn to it.
Anyone ever driven a Ford Edge? If not, go take one for a test drive on a sunny day. When Ford had the press out for test drives, everybody was given a pair of sunglasses because they did not want negative press about it. Most used the glasses, but those that did not were sure to mention that Ford offered sunglasses, they did not use them, and mentioned the bad glare in their reviews. |

CDBiker, excellent review. I saw the prepro's at Indy and felt the same. And, they weren't even completed yet.

Yes, the textured dash gives off a lot more glare than the smooth one. I think it has to do with the light catching the valleys of the texture and making it stand out. |

I'll go out on a limb and say I didn't notice any glare when I was at Indy (sun shining, and everything)...I hope others can chime in about the car at NAIAS... |
