GM releases GTR-style multi-function display
While General Motors’ new ‘Reconfigurable Performance Display’ may be nowhere near as involving as the multi-function display system used in the Nissan GT-R, the performance feedback tool provides a number of vital vehicle statistics for very little money.

The dealer-installed option will list for $295 and will be available initially on the Chevrolet Cobalt and HHR SS models, however it may eventually filter across to other GM models including the Pontiac Solstice GXP and Saturn Sky Redline line of cars.

It's nowhere near the quality of what the GT-R has. I didn't have the chance to play with the display when I was in an acquaintances GT-R but just from the photos it already looks horrible. Aside from some typical cheap Nissan plastic bits in the GT-R the display is where the car excels. It's exactly like a playstation game. They had some good help!. It's too bad GM can't get it.

Guys.. it cost $295 and is designed to work with a Chevy. Look at the number of features it has, it's actually very useful and excellent value.

It's also a performance mod. Remember that.
