new console
Lots of talk about the new dash, maybe I missed te console......
Looks like the new console is higher with a recessed shifter boot, ala 64-68 (no raised armrest) but taller. Also looks a little thinner for knee room?

the hole interior has a leaning forward look, i first noticed it with the door armrest. it looks nice and i hope it has good ergonomics.
edit: also i notice the lack of the contrasting stitching which will make a few happy however i like the contrast. the transition from the control panel to the console does not look all that great in the first picture.

And the console will fit to the dash much better in 2010 than in 2005-09.

not seeing it but looking for it i noticed comparing the two, the stack appears different in positioning and structure. the clear picture appears to curv going into the console where as the other one seems to have a sharp bend.

The centerstack and console are completely different from 2005-09 to 2010. The centerstack is the same one used in the Flex ( albeit a differently shaped panel ) and the console now curves into the centerstack, like the 1967-68 models did.

Not seeing what you suggest, but that could just be old eyes...
