The sun will do wonders to that 'leather' dash.

I haven't driven a '12 or '13 so I can't get a 100% honest comparison but from the pictures I've seen I like the '10-'11 much better.

I love the bigger font on the guages and really don't like the leather dash at all. Don't like the newer steering wheel either. I do wish I had the door lock button on the door though but I'm used to the center button now.

Wish I had the HUD but not enough to spend the money on the upgrade. I like the rear view camera as well. I'll probably be adding that one in the near future. I also wish i had a way to raise the passenger seat.

Just my opinion. I've had both, a 2011 v6 2lt and now a 2013 2ss, I like the newer interior more. But honestly, they are both amazing. I don't think anyone should "wish" they had the other. To me, it's like comparing someone just giving you a 100 dollars in 5's or 20's, both are awesome.

I do like the touch screen in the new whip though, but that's kind of a completely different comparison.

I wish there was a way to just buy the leather kit that is on the new dash. I really like that.
