My wife’s Lexus IS250 does that and it’s a nice feature. But after that, the car’s a gutless wonder.

I wonder if a needle sweep is all show or if it actually has a functional purpose? Maybe calibrate the needles? Probably not, but I'm not really sure...

i hate it when car companies start mimicking cool features of more expensive cars on less expensive cars. takes away from the cool/unique factor

Yeah, but then that guy with the Corolla can say, "Hey, my needles sweep when I start my car just like your Audi"
