Well I did purchase the Premium Legacy that I started this post with 3 weeks ago. This car has way too much tech and I'm still settling into it. Yes there are manuals but so much too read my eyes get glazed so I'm getting through it a little at a time. A couple of thoughts: Using the touchscreen can be distracting, even when you know where things are. I do like that you can shut it down with an extended push of the volume button. I don't like the Apple Carplay interface, at least not on the first attempt. I keep a microfiber cloth in the glovebox and wipe the screen down every couple of days. Smudges don't seem to be a problem. What I'm really not a fan of is the USB connections under the touchscreen. My hands aren't that big but it is not easy to plug in a USB into those ports, I mean NOT EASY. That said, I do like the car!

yep, test drive this week just want to make sure I'm informed going in

Considering Premium model. Is this interface distracting? I know we're talking new generation car, first-gen interface but I'm wondering for those that have it, do you find it distracting? What I've read. slightly cumbersome interface, may need to go into second level of controls to get what you what to access. What I want to know. Is it too bright at night while driving? Is the panel too reflective during the day? Is the panel a fingerprint magnet? Really considering this car, but not finding much written about this feature. Would appreciate your thoughts, thank you.
