Just hit 20,000 miles on my mom's CTS when I was filling it up with gas. Figured I'd share. Sorry for the ultra shitty picture.

They need to ditch that gauge cluster already.

I dunno, I don't hate it. Except for the fact that it reminds you of a late 80's GMC, its really not too terrible.

By CTS you mean ATS right?

It looks incredibly cheap for something like a CTS.

To each their own, I guess. I've never minded it.

Lol. I'll give you that it could look better. Its not perfect by any means. But it could be a lot worse.

I don't know how much worse than that it can look, haha. That's pretty bad. Like, I mean the Cobalt has better looking gauges IMO.

withim the camera app, click the gear, chose 'exposure' choose minus 1, take a pic, if still looks like starlight, choose minus 2.

I monkey with the exposure all the time with my phone. It's almost a hobby

Wait what? what?!!!! I thought those cheap idiotic looking gauges were only in the ATS. I recommended my boss buy a CTS and she did and i drove it and it didn't have those gauges. It's a 2014 though. But damn that's just depressing

Kinja cut out my text underneath the picture, goddammit. I was saying that I thought the Cobalt had better looking gauges than the CTS.

Nope, CTS has 'em too. I don't know, as I said to JKM, I've really never minded the gauges. They could be better, yes, but it could be much worse. Well, this is a 2014 too. What gauges did that CTS have in it? I've never seen different ones in a CTS. The 2015 that we had for a rental also had these gauges.

Oh wow, that looks WAY better. Ours is just the Luxury trim, not the Performance or Premium, so that explains it.

Hmm, I'm inclined to agree with you (who the heck designed the ATS/CTS gauge clusters, GameBoy Color?). Though, I know full well about the 'quality' of my plastic fantastic interior lol.

Yes those are exactly the gauges in my boss's CTS and it even has Heads Up Display. The woman is 89 but drives in sport mode all the time. Says she prefers it that way……..Jalopness never gets old

Haha, It's probably the same guy that haunted American car interiors through the 2000's trying to make a small comeback.

That explains it coz hers had the sport mode and those are the gauges in it. Now i know which trim i'm ordering if i ever get enough money to order one

No doubt there. Those gauges look way better.
