I think the tank porsche is actually really well done other than its extreme jpeg quality.

The 3 wheel car has many flaws though. They copied the rear wheel to the middle and didn't bother to fill in any gaps on the side, change the lighting under the boot, or make the wheel on the other side of the car look like a wheel they just did a black blur under the car.

I'm really trying to think of what all of those could be...

Oil temp
Coolant temp
boost/vacuum
voltage
intake temperature
oil pressure
fuel pressure
egt
AFR
aftermarket tach?

That's about all I can think of that would not be included or sufficiently covered for modified applications... That does cover all 10 gauges. Wait... is that another gauge of some sort that you can see through the steering wheel? (bottom left side)

a barometer isn't all that too far fetched of an idea... as would be the case for ambient air temp.... although ambient is likely already visible via OEM.

Individual wheel speed (VSS)
Tire Temperature (TPMS)
Tire Pressure (TPMS)

a couple others I can fathom.

Well at least they all match the stock gauges too. Better than having a damn rainbow or Christmas tree on the dash.

"Trade for turbo, audi, or bmw. Nissan 350z. Rx8. VW GTI. I won't throw any cash on my end so don't ask.
i have a 2002 Eclipse Gt with mods. 157,000 miles. 5 speed.
i have a Supercharger kit not on the car yet. "

Also, don't trade your RX8 for this POS...
