I think these are highly under-rated - there's a choice of about 7 different backlight colours to suit day/night driving (or just your mood?) and despite the obvious drawbacks of a digital speedo, it's one of the nicer ones to actually use.
Would be cooler if the binnacle/clamshell above it opened and closed like the flap over the radio.

What a great thread.....i want one of those lancia orca for the sony stereo alone. love a stereo in a different place.
with all its futuristic dash, the aventador still has to have a little bulb illuminate for the handbrake. is this because they know one day the digi-dash will give up and only half of it will work.

I thought it was a stupid place to put things too, but then I bought a car with them high up in the centre and you realise it's actually very good place to have them.
Re analogue vs digital - I've got a Boxster, which for anyone unfamiliar with their dashboard, has a combined analogue speedo with embedded digital display. I only ever look at the digital readout. It probably doesn't help that the analogue dial is marked in 25mph increments, which misses all of the main UK speed limits.

I spent my early years on the Tomy Turnin' Turbo Dashboard driving simulator of 1983!

Jesus I had one of these!http://www.pcpro.co.uk/features/361591/the-top-ten...
Honda CRZ aswell.
I would say Lexus LFA, but i think it was JUST mentioned
I have the pleasure of using both an Analog and a Digital dash on my two cars. My S2000 feels very different at the wheel to my DC5 and i think thats alot to do with the Digital dash. When the soft top is up its pretty black in the S so with the dash on its like a little beacon infront of you.
And to the people who think its easier to read a digital dash...
Do you find this difficult to read?
