Well... Is your HVAC on recirculate? The HVAC ducts are never air tight, so air pressure will build in the cabin especially with it is set to pull fresh exterior air as the vehicle is moving. Having any window open and will increase such air flow. So chances are if you are some how feeling hot air over your toes without AC on the foot setting during the summer (Middle East), then you will most likely get exterior air going into the cabin. This may or may not include warm air from the engine bay, as the firefall isn't air tight either.
For me, i never notice significant heat build up any where in the cabin even when it was 96*F out. I felt much more in my Infiniti and RX-8.

@SayNoToPistons / @Treyp,
yes, the AC is on recirculate and it is usually directed upwards.
One more thing, that i had noticed was that the plastic covering on the sides (below the center console) is loosely attached, its like i could just peel the plastic covering. Will post some pictures to show this.
Can you guys see the cables and the white Styrofoam sort of material below the steering ?
Cheers,
