Does the '13 have a shift dots on HUD?

When I test drove a '14 ZL1, it had a mode you had the dots on top that went inwards telling you when to shift. considering the '14 is a color HUD and '13 isn't... I'm curious if '13s have something similar.

thing thingy...

No they don't. That's a pretty cool feature.

Watch the 2013 ZL1 HUD video here. The shift lights (dots) are shown at 1:25 mark.

Yep. 13's have it. You have to be on the display that shows the g-force, and I thought it was above 3500 rpm's. Might be 4000 though.

Dots appear on the A6's in tap-shift mode only.

Somebody wasn't following the break in procedure of you're seeing the shift lights during a test drive

Nice.


I'm kinda crazy, but I actually wouldn't flog it on a test drive. Seems too much like borrowing someone's wife without permission.

Now it the title is in my name, I decide what the proper break in procedure is.
