The whole interior just looks dated. Worse yet, it's not sporty and it's about as well executed as something I would've expected from Buick five years ago. I see what you mean about the great big block of "wood" down there. Had they placed it elsewhere or used it a little more sparingly, just like the aluminum trim on the doors, it might not be so eye-catching. I think what's even worse is the black dash pad. It's so big/solid looking it's distracting and completely out of place (VW can do better). It looks like the color of the plastic around the gauges doesn't match up with the rest of the plastic either. Nice work.
