I believe, and someone correct me if I'm wrong, the filter has been moved so you have access from below the car now.

Yeah, I believe I saw that too in the other post.

I'm wondering what's different about the exhaust. Because I noticed the bigger tips instantly, but those are just the tips. When I peeked below, it looks same as 04s-08s.

since when does changing the location of a gauge for no apparent reason constitute a good redesign?

Non US models have the fuel / temp gauges reversed.

Ya, that wheel is ugly, plus I can't agree with the small buttons.
