Didn't see this posted here yet. Official 2011 photos have been released. New refreshed interior looks great!



More photos of the 2011 available here:

Looks clean!!!

 

White leather only looks great in the showroom- I read that it is replacing the Tuscan Beige.

 

I saw the photos on Motoringfile, too. It does have a nice, clean look. I noted that the radio/on-board computer now has the control ***** side-by-side. I wonder if the functions remain the same.

I was disappointed not to see engine gauges (boost, coolant temp, oil pressure/temp).

 

Oh good, no major changes...I don't feel bad having bought mine 6 months ago. The cheap silver plastic is gone, which is nice, but I'm so used to that and where the volume **** is, etc., that it's all good for me.

 

I like it, though I am not a big fan of the white leather. It gets dirty on my Camden.

 

So they added a speaker to the A-Pillars, chromed out the grey plastic trim, and made the center-console buttons darker? I guess it's "refreshed". Definitely not overhauled. Same parts, different colors.

 

The speakers on the pillars are the H/K system. I have them on my 2010. The chrome is the chrome line also available on a 2010. The black buttons are new and they changed the button position slightly.

 

Did you notice that now on the configurator, it shows the oval around the door now coming in English Oak with the dash, but the handle part is no longer wood...I may need to retrofit those with my English Oak interior..
