Very nice! I have HUD in F10 but honestly, I rarely ever use it. It's on but I often find myself looking naturally looking down... and then if you have polarized sunglasses on you can't see it at all.

Awesome upgrade! Just be sure to cut your oil change intervals in half or you'll be re-living the smoking issues all over again (that is, if you plan on keeping it past 100k). The valve stem seals are weak in this car...

Thanks guys, yes I LOVE the V8, it is so smooth!!!! I enjoyed my 530, but this car is in a whole new league!!! Loving it, the seats are more comfy, the engine makes the beast MOVE!!!
I am anal about maintenance so I don't stick to factory intervals anyway, usually changed my oil about every 7k miles before. It's a LOT cheaper to maintain any car than repair it, it's just especially true with our cars.
Friggin car even smells new inside.
