S3 interior is surprisingly good quality. Cannot comment on the S2 as I've never been in one. I think they both are nicely designed, but I generally prefer the S3 layout, but the S2 gauge cluster arrangement...the tach really should be front and center on these cars.

I think we need a poll for which dash is better :)

My vote would go for pre-84. Not sure if this translates (or offends ;) ), but the 84/5 dash is too "american". It feels like they tried to tart it up for the americans before they went to the 2nd gen which was all for americans (i.e. bland).

While I should be insulted by this as an American, I'm not, and I agree fully lol. The S3 dash isn't bad (and i'll admit it's better quality), but I definatly prefer the S2 anyday. Then again having only owned 83's I'm probably partial :)
