Just a quick question... I was just wondering what other 80s/90s GM cars apart from the Bonneville SSE had the Driver Information Center?

well the only other car that had the SAME dic was the Pontiac 6000 STE.

the grand prix had a similar one, some buicks had their own one too.

I would imagine Cadillacs had them. I'm thinking my friends early 90'* El Dorado had one...but I am not for certain.

Hmm quite a few had something like it then. Seems quite prolific on the higher spec models of that period. I remember sitting in an Olds Toronado years ago and that had a screen which I think might have been a DIC too.

my 1985 olds 98 regency talked to u...
it was a man'* voice if i recall

"the headlights are on...", "the key is in the ignition..."

and then the one that it gave me that caused me to pull it off the road (the salt for the last 19 years had taken its toll on the poor old car) "the brake system pressure is low. Please pull off the road at the nearest safe place and test your brakes...(so on and so forth)"
