Ok, but don't you agree that touchscreen controls look very cheap compared to real knobs? Shouldn't that be a factor too, especially in higher end cars?

The luxury automakers’ most modern glass cockpits were first incubated in their highest end models and are only now percolating down to the entry/mid levels, so no unfortunately I don’t think they read as cheap, they read as “oh awesome! just like an S class now!”

I prefer real, tactile buttons and knobs, but from a visual aspect alone, you can definitely have too many buttons. https://rennlist.com/forums/attachments/997-turbo-forum/1136...
