Specifically the volume knob. What is the big deal over a column knob? I'm assuming the type r is minus one volume knob like the other models. My 15 si is without and I don't miss it. It is so much easier and faster to raise or lower volume with the steering wheel rocker with out having to reach for anything or take my hand off the shifter. Why are so many upset by this lack of a knob? As far As passengers go.. it's no big deal for them to use the slider ,they are not driving. Plus no knobs makes the dash look cleaner and less cluttered.

You can mute with a press of the knob. I guess everyone finds the knob faster than a mute button or using the slider . But you can always buy an aftermarket head unit with NAVI, on board DVD and whole bunch of other options for around $200
