I drove one and kept trying to figure out what a-hole engineer thought it would be a good idea to put the gauges even FURTHER away from the line of sight of the driver.

If I recall correctly the reason for the center mount gauges was because it would more easily allow for the same platform to be used to manufacture cars for countries that drive on the left side of the road. They'd just have to kind of swivel the center piece. It did take me awhile to get used to!
Over-all, the car was just CHEAP. Not inexpensive, cheap. |
