I like the car but the big numbers that turn so you almost have to turn your head to read them. The 7 in the Tach and the 175 in the speedo being flipped is confusing.



I hope they are straight come production

It might not even be slightly similar for production.

I'm still not a fan of the console guages.

I understand that was an issue when GM looked at comments on the interior, so I'm guessing I'm not alone.

Even in the first gen cars the console guages were an option. So I don't think that will be a standard item.

I definitely like the console gauges (though I think fuel should be on the dash or at least duplicated on the display).

They need a HUD to keep your eyes off those gauges....

I like the interior of the car, just not the look of the dash.

True, but it's interesting that they've shown it in two separate cars a year apart.

nah others have said something about that too, but personally I like console gauges. Especially now that their white. I dont like clock gauges and how the numbers turn with the gauge. I dont like that one number is almost upside down and the very next number is flipped right side up.
