Doesn't the standard HUD use color already??? Personally I really like the HUD option, the only thing I would like is the option to show more data (and let users choose). This would surely only require a software update. I'd like to see RPM (numeric or graphic), current gear plus an option to use one of the steering wheel buttons to cycle through other stuff like MPG, DTE, temp, time etc. Surely not too much to ask????!

I've seen two colors so far, orange and green with orange being the predominate color. Green for one condition of the CC, but I cannot remember condition since the car is sitting in the doctors waiting room right now

There is yellow and red as well when you have the active cruise control as seen in ICEMAN's picture

So it is just a matter of sending the right info to the HUD colour-LCD screen.

I would like to see a BWM Tech bulletin on the HUD and its controls.
