I couldn't figure out how to change the display on the dash. Can you put a digital speedo there?
I suppose its possible, though I hope they update the center display to allow for tach/speedo. Stock gauges are difficult to read quickly even if you're used to analog.

Looks sawweeeet! I ordred the same color, without actually seeing it in person yet. So far 4 weeks, and still no VIN, for me to track it. Evrytime I see a picture of one I get more souped! I went to the dealer saturday to check progress, and they had a GT with the Brembo package and the wheels, and I actually like those wheels better than the BOSS wheels. Im already planning on doing them in black to go with the Deep Impact Blue.

4 weeks and no VIN? I just placed my order today. The wait is going to kill me.

You should get your VIN quicker than that, man. Stay on your sales guy. I had to really pester mine.

Nice. I am hoping by July 4th, but it could be a long shot.

Nice ride! I drove a silver base GT with auto last Saturday and it was sweet! Can't bring myself to pull the trigger. Way too high for me.
