Well, I'm jealous. It does light up red at night though, so I got that going for me.

This is from my '12 Versa sedan, which had no tach. Just the giant speedo and the little odo reading. My '14 hatch has the electroluminescent gauges.

140 is quite optimistic, just like the 250 on mine haha.

Both of them are at 3000 RPM at 60 mph in 5th (top) gear...yeah, 140 ain't happening. The sedan did get up to 90 once and held it admirably well.

I like the clean design, a bit Porsche-ey

The Grant wheel I'm planning on putting in is walnut and black. I'll get a custom walnut shifter knob to match.

This is the stock wheel:

That's a mighty fine cluster. Glad to see that they've started going a bit more interesting again. I miss the spaceship dash on the CX.

Also, on the European-car theme, here's the fantastic view from the driver's seat of my parents' Alfa 156, back from when I visited earlier this year. There's an Opporeview on the way, but here's a sneak peek:

The one on the C4 is very french, reminds me of the CX.

Sadly not. It's the 2.0 JTS four-cylinder. Not terribly fast, but it's still a huge amount of fun to drive, and it makes a nice noise when you give it the works. There's no low-end torque to speak of, so even in normal driving, you have to be pretty aggressive with the rev range, which in my eyes, makes it all the more fun.

To angle the headlights and I think the others are set clock, never used them yet.
