It is kind of funny actually. I look at this and it seems as though it is a chronograph as the thread says. You would presume that is for track use. The funny part is that they will put this in the car but, as I understand from reading other posts, refuse to warranty faulty ceramic brakes wherein they were referenced for the track in their own advertising!!!

This officially wins the top honors for "Dead Thread Revival"

Sports chrono pod is not flip'able.

Not sure why anyone would want an analog stopwatch on the dash.

In fact, not sure why anyone would want a sport button - if you buy a sports car, don't you want it to be in "fun mode" all the time? If you want comfort, buy a Lexus. If you want fuel efficiency, buy a hybrid. Why shut off all the "sports" features.

Hey Bob,

hahaha, sorry about bring back an old thread, but at least I did my search and this was all I could find!

The analog stopwatch is something that not only times 'best lap' but also '0-60', no?

and I'm not quite sure what you meant about the sport button, is that something else on this gauge too? or is that what triggers the timing in the gauge?
