Love all the flashing lights! We had a Maserati Merak once. It had a big amber light in the center of the cluster that said "STOP!" I got it to light up once. But, funny, it didn't light up the night she caught fire at a light while on the way to the mechanic for a tune up.
Syn-Ack : The "limit" light might be the feature where you set a speed warning so it dings at you when you go past a certain speed. Many european and japanese cars have this feature. As far as the lights, The yellow thing is "TCS OFF" The car with the hood up is "malfunction and in the very last frame, water temperature nearing limits. None of that means much, since I've driven by numerous BMWs (usually 7-series) where every light on the gauge cluster is lit due to some sort of malfunction.
Thanks but for cars I drive that fast I prefer a reverse opening hood thanks... If the latch on that car failed.... Incredible sounds... Fits right up there with the flat-six sounds.
BMW hoods used to have a safety latch system that would prevent that. The hinges were back @ the firewall, but the hood itself sprung forward out of the safety latches before it tilted up. Do they still do that?
