That looks much better than the new ATS-V though.

looks like gauges from an econobox. Center mounted speedo is worthless for a performance car especially when theres a digital speedo right below it

+1, the gauge cluster looks like something from an 87 TransAm.

I think the Sunfire was their inspiration, Retro, right!

1987 Trans Am had way cooler gauges than that. You could get standard round analauge gauges, or the Knight Rider option!!

That is Awesome! That thing looks like a planes cockpit with all it has going on. Sweet 5k redline! From idle to the yellow you've got a whole 3000+ useable rpm. Nice!

Oh, and the handbrake on the passengers side is sweet. I guess that's in case the brakes fail and the driver freezes up the passenger can intervene!

This seriously, would bug the hell out of me every time i got in it and saw that cluster, I can definitely respect how well they did in the performance category though.

Gotta keep the cost down somehow right.

Old thread but have spent some seat time in a ATSV as well.

Id have to agree with everyone that the gauge cluster is awfullll, the older 09-14 CTSV gauge cluster is far nicer.

Handling is very good, seemed a little better than my 2011 F but it also has wider way better pilot super sport tires vs my all seasons and it pulls decently, similar to a stock F. My modded V actually outran this ATSV of my buddys I drove.

I thought the interior was very nice, cue kinda sucks, stereos passable. Transmission isnt as good as the Fs.

All in all, its still a solid car but not for 60-70k.

Maybe used for 30k in a few years although my buddys had a lot of issues with his, electrical gremlins so could be kinda scary owning out of warranty.
