Default Gauge needles bounce on key turn?

Do any models have the tach/rpm needles bounce or sweep all the way through when the key is turned forward?

I feel like ive seen this on a stang before, but my 2013 v6 premium doesnt do this. Ive heard that it was removed for the 2013 models?

I don't think mine does...it doesn't sound familiar, but now that I think of it I probably wouldn't notice if it did.

That's strange, I was in a 2010 and all the gauges did a full sweep on key up. I thought all of the 2010+ did this. I know my 07 does not, the needles just stick and kinda drift down when you turn the key off.

Mine only does it the first start after the battery was dead or disconnected

+1 my 08 only does it when after I've disconnected/reconnected the battery on the first start afterwards. After that, nope.
