No offense to any NISSAN owners. They're great cars and trucks.

Did the car that you drove have the "active steering" option?

are horrific....like being in a Pontiac.

The one thing Mark said that really resonated with me is the comment about the tablet. It does seem to be a polarizing feature. I can see where the new Audi interior style would look worlds better to someone who strongly dislikes the current dash. I don't mind it at all. I feel like it lets the rest of the dash be lower, which makes the car overall seem a little more open to the world, while keeping the display at a decent height when I want to use Android Auto navigation.
