Whats with this spedometer?


From an idiot dealer on ebay selling a whitewater shinka '07. This picture obviously does not belong with the rest of them they are showing since they are advertising it as a manual, plus the steering wheel is an '09, but what's with the spedometer? Specs for a different country?

Maybe it has been wrecked and rebuilt? That's my best guess.

thats CX-7's dash.

My father has CX-7 so I know. but the one in the picture is a regular version (no Tech Package). While my father's car does. (Center console are different. I checked both out b4 we got the one with tech package)

The steering wheel should've given it away. Your eyes shouldn't have even made it to the speedo.
