There's a difference between designing something for light weight and designing something for low cost. The Turn signal stalk and headlight swich just feel cheap, not light weight. Hondas are better executed in that respect. It's really odd that these parts are on the same car that has the elegant aluminum door release handles and armrest handles. It's disappointing in the Boxster but inexcuseable in the 911.
