Just before going home from work today I noticed this...

83000 km already.

Time sure flies by when you're having fun.
Also reminds me that some thing, even when you want to, will not last forever.

But then again, this are km, not miles :D
So I still have a couple of 100K to go.

That speedometer is in Kilometer per hour so 320 kilometers is correct.
 
i think netviper is saying that the US speedos only go up to 280km (corresponding with 175 mph) while the Euro ones go up to 320km (200mph)

that's why i really liked my S2000 where i could change from miles to km by a button. i've actually driven with km reading for a while but kept having to convert it in my head every time i see a speed limit sign....i gave up cuz i was killing a few hundred brain cells a day....:D

Thats Funny :) :D :D :D
 
I noticed that your cruise control button is on the left side. In my car it's on the right side and the rear window defogger is on the left side. Is it reversed on euro cars?
 
Actually, the European odo go up to 280 kph. The one I have is a special version which is causing me a lot of problems.
That's because now I have to modify the car more than I would otherwise so I can just get the car up to that 320 kph mark. That old 280 I can get easily already.
Never noticed the buttons where reversed on the US models.
Some of the lights are different. The TCS off button is upper right, and the TCS activate-light in the tacho is of a different color I think.
 
Kinda neat, my Canadian car goes up to 280km/h and last marking 300....

Has anyone found Reverse faced gages for the KM/H cars?
 
My CC is also on the left.

And I think JDM clusters should work on North American cars. My friend in Japan had me buy a Canadian speedo because ours goes up to 280km/hr while his maxed out at 180km/hr.....he told me ours just plugs right in, so I would guess it works the other way around as well.
