I have always liked the look of the factory console. Functionality, not so much. I love the shifter itself, they are super reliable and work great. My biggest gripe is there is nowhere to put a damn soda can in an A body.
Soda?
I was the center console as young kid in the 60s. On road trips, I would sit in the middle, hold the beer can and push in the cigarette lighter for the driver, my grandfather, without messing up the neatly folded seatbelts.
Lol. Criminal acts today.
Fond memories.
