370Z Fuel Gauge?!?!

Anyone get a confirmation that Nissan will be redesigning the fuel gauge? Its not a deal breaker for me, but if the 2010 370Z comes out with an analog one

No problems reading at all with 35% tinting. I like the guage.

Now the digital clock guage, I wish it was replace with something analog since I have nav.

The fuel gauge does more than just display fuel (water temp, warnings/alerts, range, fuel mileage, outside temp). It was probably a good compromise for the extra functionality. I like it OK. I think having the water temp light up as a bar rather than single LED would have been more cool.

Doesn't bother me either, and I appreciate the extra stuff it does besides fuel level.
