Well, Harald, define need...

Actually, I think it's kind of cool and keeps the area between the seats
that much less cluttered.  However, I can think of at least one major
downside.  Unless they've reversed a decades old trend of making things
harder to access and repair, that dash is going to be a nightmare to
work on.  Can't wait to let the local luminaries in the Good Guys car
stereo department working on that.

And god help us if the same people who designed the manual
heating/cooling system controls have now been given free reign to design
the equivalent via an LCD screen.
