IMHO, HUD should be standard in pretty much all luxury cars by this point.

It's worth noting that no heads up display works with polarized sunglasses. As a result, it's a feature I find completely useless and generally end up turning off in vehicles that have it.

Actually the first HUD was used by GM in 1988 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme and Pontiac Grand Prix and the first color unit was in 1995 Corvettes. But hey, if you drink enough of BMW's Kool-Aid 28 year old technology begins to look pretty neat.
