The plastics look to be of higher quality and the whole design just looks a lot classier.

I have to agree with the plastics used. They've held up miraculously to the abuse of my 85 lb dog. I'll have had my car two years this October and It still amazes me how good the back looks despite the frequent use of it in transporting my dog.
I recently took apart the rear hatch taking out all the plastic pieces right down to bare metal, I'd dropped a socket down in there when putting performance springs on last summer and I finally got around to go looking for it. All the plastic pieces held up, none braking or bending discoloring, looked better then new after washing each piece and putting all back together again.
Last night, I pulled the front door panels off to replace the factory speakers with some nicer aftermarket ones, took me a while to figure out all the tricks to do it but once I got it back on and fitted again it looked good an new, nothing loose or 'not fitting just right', it was perfect.
I've been very happy with the Aerio interior. My arm rest is showing a little wear after two years of use but everything else has been amazing. Seats have held up amazing. No sagging, no crazy amounts of wear.
