The gauges have a deep three-dimensional appearance, with white and red pointers. "The instrument panel - including the four auxiliary gauges mounted in front of the shifter - pays homage to first-generation Camaros, while achieving a modern appearance through its refined integration of components," said Jones.

The shifter and pedals are made of billet aluminum. The steering wheel has a detailed, deep-dish three-spoke and the front seats are hinged at the center - rather than the sides - for better integration.
