Yes and no... A C6 or earlier interior is timeless. Basic radio (that you can swap/upgrade if you desire), analog gauges, etc.

We aren't audiophiles so basic radio maybe. The Auto Android function, that we definitely want to have. Analog gauges aren't our thing. I definitely prefer digital.

I suspect all three.

I'll also add that this has been discussed a bunch of times, with no outcome.

Nice find! But owning a 2019, I would say it's a marginal improvement, at very best.

Only if the camera is defective. It is for upgrading to a 17 and up so you already have it from what I am reading unless I am mistaken.

You are correct; I suppose my comment should have been, even if you have a year before 2017 that the 2017+ camera still isn't anything to write home about...
