I much prefer the uncluttered new set up. Ultimately, most of the important controls and settings can be changed by the voice recognition software and that's the way to go in my opinion.

Its a shame there's no Spotify voice integration (akin to Alexa for example), but maybe the partnership with Google in the future might change this.

Disagree (with the exception of the cheap bit - the build quality does need work and even more so for the Model X).

If you've only had a good look at an 'S', then go for a drive in one

I just can't see why they didn't put in a decent head's up display system, seems ideal for it!
