Default new dashboard

I think the old dash is much more fun to look @ ....AND that 9k thing helps a bit

really thought i think the new dash looks bunced up and out of sorts , but of course i'm bais

If u could choose whick would be in your car , forget the 9k thing " i know "

which design do u perfer


An 00-03 IMO is classic , just like the car it serves

I like the old style better. It's more symetrical with the RPM's sweeping across the whole display. Of course the spaces get wider between the higher numbers and that drives me nuts. I do like the clock in my new one though.

....maybe the new EU spec dash with the 9k has all the good things from both worlds.

I notice that the other day! How are you going to make a measuring device with uneven units of measure!

I also prefer the old one. Of course I am a little biased

No, it looks just like the 8k one's only it goes to 9k. The numbers are smaller so they all fit.
