im' gonna have to wholeheartedly disagree on this. I just had a week with a new DB11 Volante. And the interior was sickening.. Like really bad. The only thing it had better than a BMW m6 interior was solid metal shift paddles. BMW really cheaped out there.. Other than that, for features, looks, quality, I prefered the BMW over the Aston. No joke.

Mercedes has gone way overboard with theiri 'ambient' lighting. All those colorful LED zones makes the car look like a cheap Albanian night club. Thank God the M6 isn't like that. I would literally not buy a car because of those goddamn interior lightings like the merc has ( I think BMW is alreadydoing that now) ugh

Not too low as there's still plenty left to bottom out. But in my "comfy" spot as to seat adjustment the bottom of the dash cuts off bottom line of the speedo display. (see below) In order to see the "full" display I have to adjust seat to what I feel is uncomfortable with.

so instead I just lean forward and peek over the edge to read any info ...

That lip at the bottom should slant down lower. Anyone else or just me?

+1 for me - same issue - wrong angle so I have to raise the seat higher than desired

That's really weird as I'm 5'10 and never have any issue seeing the whole dash display from my normal seating position.

+1 on the partial blocking of the dash for me as well. I’m 5’9” so I guess it really depends on seating position. I can live with it though as there isn’t any info on the bottom that I constantly need to monitor. Definitely a design flaw from bmw.
