Actually, the only thing I like about my Toyota Echo (other than the gas
mileage) is the center mounted instrument cluster. For once the wheel isn't
blocking my view of the speedo and gauges. And I can still see the road
quite clearly while glancing at them.


I agree that down would be bad though.
