Agreed 200 %. The main reason why I buy Supras is the display. I so coooool
to know what the 'line' is doing. I guess that a small display that would
fit a 3.5" (or even a 5.25") would be a really great idea. Not only would
it be a selling factor, but it would also be soooo useful.
So, Mr Supra, if you read this : think about it.
