As an aside, the tach and numbers seem so crisp, clean, and easy to read on this new Mazda3. Really diggin' it!
I could deal with a digital speedometer but I don't care for the digital tach on the 3i at all.
Best used with manual transmission.
All that is left is a beep when you hit redline.
Simple switch to kph or mph instead of looking at the 2nd set of smaller speed numbers.
(this assumes that there is a button to switch like in the RX-8)
Regardless, no unification of the instrument panel from the i series to the s series is a shame, as the i series is the one with the manual transmission and needs the larger tachometer.
