Yerp, same shift knob. Same as 2010too, but they made it silver just so they could be like "see, different! Don't wait til 2011!"

I haven't really noticed anything significant. I haven't driven it much though. I might be able to get a better answer for you after tonight.

Nice, I like it. The wheels look great, you should be avoiding potholes regardless.

Just a note though, steel wheels are pretty strong and they're cheap to fix if they do get bent. That's why I rock steelies in the winter.

The interior looks nice, not sure about the gauges though. Nice ride overall!

I think we'll probably do steelies and snow tires in the winter.

And yeah, the gauges are kinda plain, but I must admit they look a lot nicer at night. The whole interior is really nice at night.

I might get a pic of the interior tonight when you can see everything lit up and the ambient lighting function is more noticeable.

It's got 2 "unique" chimes and they're both f**king annoying.

So I drove it around for a bit last night and there was a little bit of lag. I only really noticed it when I blipped the throttle for downshifts.

Here are some night photos of the interior lit up:
