My sentiments exactly. Boy what a huge lump of... whatever it is. I like the huge gearbox though, it's very innovative.

I'm not fond of the non ZSP steering wheel, but I think I could live with it if left with no other choice (ZSP).

I forgot to add; I believe the Q7's interior looks too much like the A6's, too similar and not enough individual character in the Q7. Exterior design between the E70 and Q7 is a slightly different story though.

Yup, BMW's sports steering wheel look the best IMO but none-sports is different story tho.

But that's the sports wheel in your pic above. The regular wheel looks very ordinary.

Doesnt matter, Im just showing there is a better looking steeringwheel for those who dont want the one in the cheaper models.
This steering is standard in the 4.6i V8 version.

I'd say that I like the Audi's best. But you're right, the alternatives aren't all that good either.
