Saw this in the current Auto Express and thought it may be of interest as its shown on an E60 screen. Wonder if it would be a retrofit?

Hi,
I confirm that it's currently in test.
I work for Siemens VDO in France at Toulouse. A part of the development and the tests on the TARGET CCC are performed at Sophia-Antipolis location near CANNES/NICE.

Holy crap, it's about time! I'll definitely trade up for this option.

The best thing would of course be to move all of the information from the screen, to the windscreen - turning it into a large navigational HUD.

That would be very cool. But, could Siemens VDO get it to work right?

Oops, I looked back. Welcome steck. Did not mean to offend. We just have enough software problems to deal with without inviting more trouble before what we have is induced to work right. We love France and visit often, but I gave up trying to speak French--except the very basics.

My Ride: E60 "Stripper" Now C6 "Stripper"
Question

I want a view where the potholes, broken glass, pebbles or stones, nails, construction plates, dips (that you can bottom out on) and dog sh*t are displayed!


Welcome to the 21st century boys and girls.
