console - (place where the radio and a/c stuff is...)

Do you like a straight up and down cconsole? (like the levin)

Do you like a slightly sloped console? (like the mr2)

or do you like a really sloped console? (like in the 300Z)

Hmmm, interesting one, lol :roll:

Im for the slightly sloped one, like in my car

You have WAY too much time on your hands to be thinking about these sorts of things.

I quite like the sloped ones. Things like MR2's make you feel kinda cosey and in a cockpit. The MkIV Supra is especially like that.

Straight up and down, nice and classic dashes are the way to go

Doesn't matter to me, as long as the radio and heater controls are easy to reach. ie: Functionality over fashion.

Straight up in down is my way to go!

slightly angled

Slightly angled like my car, i find it really sh*t when i drive a car with striaight up and down, i cant reach anything while having my arm resting on the centre console and the gear knob!

The angles usually reflect the drivers expected position when driving.
A slopey dash is going to suck if you wind up cramped by it. A straight up and down one is gonna suck if you have to sit forward to reach stuff.

Kinda a weird question to ask when the angles are usually designed to compliment the way the rest of the cockpit is configured.

Slightly sloped for me.

Posted: **Sat Jan 07, 2006 12:29 am**

I would love a really sloping one (the 300ZX one) but would like it slightly angled towards the driver like some euros are

Good looking, but also practical.

I like the 'really sloped' interior.... hence looking into buy a big, fat, whale, a 300z.

What the PISS?!? It just depends how it looks when im sitting in it.

EDIT. That sounded rather vain. :?:

Posted: **Mon Jan 09, 2006 9:52 am**

Got to go with the slightly sloped like in my car.
It's comfy, you don't have to reach for things etc.

Posted: **Mon Jan 09, 2006 11:31 am**

however my legacy is setup. perfect

Posted: **Mon Jan 09, 2006 3:19 pm**

Up and down. Hell, I don't know why.

i like the way the console is in my truck wrapped around the left hand side. and sum more switches and shit and the radios above ma head.
