That is a Corvette gauge cluster.
Modern digital displays ain't got shit for charm factor, no matter how much better they are.

The 85mph speedo always makes me chuckle. And I can only imagine how awful that range estimator must be.
But the sheer 80's charm cannot be denied.

As terrible as modern range estimators, actually. Never trust those things, ever. What you should be more worried about on this car is the fuel gauge. Don't trust it below the 1/2 mark, it's a sneaky bastard!
Bar graph tops out at 85, but three-digit numeric display is a loophole. Suck it, Feds!

My GTP had a range gauge that was completely ridiculous. On a fill-up it would show a range you could never even reach at optimal speed using cruise control on a flat road. The "fuel used" was actually very accurate and I ended up watching that instead of the gauge.
