Its black, you can't see it....except for the instrument cluster which lights up nicely.

Man, that speedo goes up pretty fast to 120mph....Your Z is an auto right? Funny, 1st and 2nd gear has very similar max speed as the manual (40, 60mph). I don't think auto Z's are much slower than manual ones to 60mph. Nice vid.

Yea, auto. I was in Man mode. Watching for the redline.
It pulls harder with my CAI. I need to get to a track and a dyno soon to see what it clocks.
Should be faster without passenger and on level ground.
But, i like the dash at night. Kind of a retro look. I hate that the tach is in the middle. When i drive, my hand covers it up. I wish they would have put it on the right instead of the middle.

when im driving at night i usually turn all the lights off inside. the only thing that bothers me is the little a/c light that cna't be turned off. the option for circulating air or vented air light will never go off..that kinda bothers me but i dim my radar detector and then i turn off all the lights except that one and i love it. no1 can see inside especially with my 20% tint.

If you asked the member here named Acree, you'd get a different answer to this one...
