the idea is not about space. It's about design. This is a new interior design tool. I wish you guys had the same opinion of the wasted space as your wall mounted LCD's.

yeah but we get 707hp hellcats. I'll take that trade any day over an indicator color. You can tell the hellcat owner how stupid his rear indicators are as they disappear in the distance in front of you.

well light is coming from somewhere. So define "bulb".

Audi already did this. Look up the new cluster for the new Audi TT.

most "infotainment" systems have figured this out already. Rarely do I read a review complaining of "needs to be dimmer" or "needs more vibrant colors" or "can't see during the day".

it's not a entertainment system. It's a interior design tool.

it's not a TV. It's about interior design. It gives designers new freedom.

yeah it's currently on Mercedes. It's their night vision aid so you don't get deer blood on your precious S-Class.

it's just an example. It is here to show the custom shapes that can be done. Every manufacturer with customize to their interior design trends.

the flaw in your statement is the word "been". This technology is about the "future". And the technology will meet the needs of the "future" of automotive design. So no it has not "been" a problem yet, but what are we supposed to do? Wait until it is a problem? I'd rather team up with Sharp and be prepared for the…

this guy gets it. How come no one else gets it?

more parts = more things to fail.

Well if sharp wants to sell these things they will have to make it as cheap as rectangular screens and plastic bezels. Your move Sharp.

so buy a modern day sports car with analog gauges. Hold on to it for a while, then you have your old school analog dream car in the future.

As the Lexus LFA has started to show, high tech engines change RPMs faster than analog gages can keep up with these days. Start watching racing and notice what classes still use analog.

oh and when you take a picture of a moving display, let's say a RPM number changing some times the display changes faster than the shutter speed of the camera. Don't worry. The display herts are calibrated to human eyes, not varying shutter speeds of press cameras dealing with show lighting dark enough so the displays…

We'll good things it's a display model and not in a real car.

customization is going to be a standard feature. We're starting to get apps in our cars these days. Remember the interior LED light color customization trend? Now there will be more to customize. What if you hate some design trends of a certain brand. Well now you might be able to change it a little bit and therefor…

we'll good thing it's a display model and not in a real car.

the higher hood could be due to those pedestrian safety rules in europe. I have herd other brands designing higher hoods to reduce pedestrian injurys at low speed, as in a city with cross walks. I think I herd one brand developing a pedestrian air bag.
