Agree 100% with you on this.

That's a cleaner-looking integration than in the C7 models. Nice. I especially like the stitched leather.

Thanks for posting. It does look nice. I'm glad I held off on my 2014 order.

I wouldn't get too carried away about how that particular pic looks, especially the stitched leather part. That may be a pic of the car with the pricey extended leather package. The HUD projection box likely doesn't have the leather wrapping without that option---just a plasticized housing that matches the material of the upper instrument panel without the leather. Top quality plastics, but not leather.
