Personally, I prefer analog displays over digital instrumentation. If takes a bit longer to process the information at a glance when compared to a needle. But that's just me. If you like them and that's what you want, I say go for it.

I'm with Scott 100%. Most high end cars don't even have a digital clock much less a tach and speedo and once in a great while, there's a single small digital readout for RPMs or gear indicator next to an analog tach. If you're going for a Racepak look, get a Racepak not that 90s street rod stuff. And good luck trying to read those in direct sunlight.

You wouldn't go to a fine jeweler and ask for a digital watch, would you?
