Background Color of Rev Counter

i have the red tach.
i am happy with it and would choose it again.
the red color shows up best in daylight.

 

Rosso Corsa exterior and yellow tach. No problem seeing the tach.

 

Black for legibility. My eyes aren't getting any younger....

 

Same here, love the red tach!

 

Yellow here.

 

White. Why get it for free when you can pay!

Seriously though, I prefer the yellow tach, as it compliments the yellow horsey in the center of the steering wheel. I think the look was more striking on the f430 and 599, but for me yellow works well

Yellow...same color like the shield on the steering

 

Print in out, put it on the wall, throw a dart and there you go! They all look good, cant go wrong.

 

Left screen display:
RACE mode is yellow. I believe yellow looks great.
Sport is White.
Wet is light blue.

 

Yellow is nearly invisible in the sun in a 458 due to its long tunnel and lack of backlight.

 

Thanks for these pictures. Since I'll be driving in Race-mode most of the time, the Yellow that I've chosen remains my preferred option. And yes, I like the fact that it matches the horsey on the steering wheel too.

 

I have never noticed this. But if I did I could turn on the lights which would backlight the tach. Never had to do it. Anyway LED steering wheel would make this a moot issue IMVHO.

Looking at the admittedly small sample size of our poll, looks like yellow has the best resale value regardless.

Best

 

I have red and like it.....any color you get will be awesome. Really can't go wrong.

 

My opinion:

My 458 Italia had yellow and my FF has yellow. After having yellow tachs for a long time I decided to go for the standard black when I ordered my 458. I am so much happier with black. The yellow looks great but during the day, even on sunny days, it is hard to read and just feels too dark. There doesn't seem to be anyway to manually illuminate it. Even if you turn the headlights on during the day the backlight for the tach seems to be controlled by an illumination sensor and won't come on until it is dark enough. The black tach never suffers from that. For my next car I'd definitely spec the black again.

 

Yellow, because it's a ferrari. It turns black for you at night.

 

Yellow...

 

Black for practical reasons because it is the most legible, yellow for style. I chose black for my 458.

 

Some may disagree but I find the white tach to be difficult to read in comparison to the other colors.

 

Red. Matches my stitching.
