What happened to the upshift indicator?

Was that only on pre-production models?

hehe, "only". Were you expecting a holographic navigator co-pilot to appear in the passenger seat and yell "shift now!"?

I can barely hear the shift buzzer in my car. If I listen closely in first and second it is very faint. In third gear, it is inaudible due to increased road and wind noise.

I was expecting it to be a little more prominent....thoughts????

Can you make it louder??

I found the buzzer to be almost too quiet, too. I didn't want one as blaring and intrusive as my old RX-7's, but this one is unintrusive almost to the point of being inaudible!

Are you talking about the upshift indicator light, (for economy) or the over-rev buzzer?

Guess I sort of hi-jacked this thread. I'm referring to the redline buzzer.
