Default correct spedo?

I am a C4 owner and have been looking at C5's and have noticed on EBAY item # 4604660551 that in the pict that the speedo it registers 300 mph. It looks to be standard but have never seen one. Any ideas?

They go to 200 not 300. You either read it wrong, or it is aftermarket.

it is a european/canadian spec speedo, the speedo is set up to be in kilometers per hour. That is why it goes to 300, it will work in the place of the 200 mph one.
