    No, wheel seems to be centered enough for me. Did, however, feel like maybe the seat itself could be twisted on its axis inboard just a tad. It's probably only my 6 decades of lousey posture catching up to me.

    Definitely noticeable but causes no problem for me. My '07 G2 was also like that.

    Most women have one breast a bit larger than the other. Hasn't prevented me from loving them. :D

    Yes it is, I hadn't noticed until this thread.

    I had thoght that I didn't like the instrument cluster, or lack thereof. I wonder if the left leaning steering wheel is part of toyota's drive to be different. The retarded shifter, replacement of a temperature gauge with an idiot light, digital spedo with no tach, left leaning steering wheel all seem to come from a design philosophy. I don't like it, but its not enough to not buy the car. When plug in hybrids are more available these choices might start biting toyota in the a$$.
