    Funny. I feel like the Prime is a way less conservative design.

    perhaps you didn't see the original fail?

    I actually prefer the pre facelift taillights over the new ones but I think I'm probably the only one. I also prefer the rear seats on the old Prime as well. I think the back seats are too small to have a center seat and the fixed center console is far more elegant in my opinion.

    I also really liked the white plastic instead of the piano black it looked really special. Piano black is super lame.

    Ditto. I like the Zorro taillights of the pre-refreshed Gen 4.

    I’m ok with the rear centre console because of the reduced storage in this new design.

    And because I couldn’t get my Moonstone interior, I would’ve liked more of the white trim to break up the monotony. I have it on the steering wheel and shifter. Black on the centre console (front/rear).

    Our 2016 has the black with blue contrast stitching and white trim.

    The one benefit of the black console is that if I accidentally leave my phone on the Qi charger, it blends right in and you can’t see it (my phone is black as well).

    Yeah and it shows every scratch and imperfection.
