Waiting to board the bright red gauge-rack railway, you will get a tantalising view of the fabled "Big Three": the 3,970m Eiger, the 4,107m Mönch and the 4,158m Jungfrau (Ogre, Monk and Virgin).
Trim levels in the Vibe are superb, with a woven fabric look to the seats, metallic-painted plastic trim pieces, and deep-set red gauges on the dash.
The screaming acid-red gauges and cross-stitched wheel not to mention the hardly sedate seats team up to make sure you know the SE-R isn't a humdrum sedan.

Within a few feet, the app excitedly reverts to a "metal detector" screen, with a red and green gauge displayed along side the distance to discovery.
In some cases, the time difference between the arrival of a rupture front at two neighboring strain gauges could not be determined (e.g., the red and purple gauges in Figure 3D) because of the small size of the test sample and the limited sampling rate.
With a flip of the traction-control switch and a depression of the accelerator, the needle red-lined on the rpm gauge and the car sprang out of the snow with the alacrity of a mountain goat.
The instruments were clear and easy to read by day, and the gauges' red lighting worked fine.
