Colouring the dash is a bad idea, good for ford though, makes us look far uper class!

It's certainly bright! It's interesting that the SS appears to have a tiptronic shifter while the luxo model uses buttons on the steering wheel.

i'm sure if ford put it in the falcon you would say it was the best thing since sliced bread.
These pics are poor quality scans from wheels magazine, in the mag they look much much better |

That red dash is shocking. Those 2 knobs on the first pic look like they have been stolen straight out of a ba falcon.

I like it a lot besides the bright dash that would be annoying when driving along.

God that looks ugly.
If it didn't have the colour scheme, it would be so much better IMO. Other then that, it looks pretty good. Especiallly the Auto shifter. |

I'll wait to see it in the actual car! I do agree that it looks quite BA/F ish! That was one area they've been canned on for years, the horrible looking dash as compared the the Falcon's which looks much, much better!

And you can get flamed here as well for the same thing, but on that note I must say im just under 6 foot and I cannot see me having to "stretch" AT ALL! A lot of cars have them there nothing wrong with it. Stoney! |

The bottom one looks like a modern Mercedes crossed with a cheap Korean or Jappa with that horrible shifter.
Surely that orange dash isn't gonna be on the production cars. The 4th pic with the Vectra inspired one is the best imo, cleanest design, not as Japanese as the others. |

I was told that if I didn't have anything nice to say, I shouldn't say anything, so I'll exit thread left now...
