When I worked in the auto industry at Builc/Oldsmobile/Cadillac Engineering , I got to see one of these while it was in prototype stage. One reason this didn’t take hold is that they found that this interface forced a driver to take their eyes off the road to do basic functions like changing the climate settings.
When I got to ride in this, there was a maintenance screen you could pull up by pressing three of the buttons. This screen had functions like displaying and modifying the throttle angle, fuel-oil mixture, etc. While driving around, we were able to change the fuel oil mixture such that the car started running badly and we could smell gas.

In this video, we are taking a look at this simply amazing and very advanced CRT Display in the Buick Reatta known as the Electronic Control Center. In the Buick Riviera, this was also known as the Graphic Control Center. While looking very dated today, this was outstanding technology back in the 80’s, and with them becoming more and more rare, it was awesome to bring this system to life in this car, and, in twist of irony, digitally preserve this relic from the 1980’s.

Neighborhood Car Reviews gives you an alternative look at the already impressive list of car videos that are online. What we do is a first-person walk-around of the car. We show features and details that are on the particular model being shown. Performance data, safety equipment and the like are usually not shown due to the already enormous amount of videos that cover the aforementioned topics. We like to cover everything from classics to high-end and everything in between.
