The exterior of a car may be the first thing that attracts us to a particular machine, but it’s the interior where we spend the most time. An interesting interior isn’t necessarily a good one, and a good interior isn’t necessarily an interesting one, at least from a purely functional standpoint. As illustrated here, however, there are rare exceptions that blend both high style and efficient ergonomics.
One of our favorite Tumblrs photo-documents hundreds, if not thousands, of dashboards, center consoles, seats, and control interfaces of mostly vintage machines, from bare-bones SUVs and economy cars right through high-end luxury and sports cars and even concepts—all in high resolution with good lighting and composition, which makes sense as most seem to have been pulled from period advertising.
It’s a great way to waste a few hours, dreaming what it’d be like to pilot some seriously exotic machinery. Take a rare glimpse behind the wheel at the blog Car Interiors.
