I have to admit, I'd like to see a car display all this crap. It'd make it a lot easier to check my speed if I didn't have a steering wheel blocking my view

Don't some Cadillacs and BMWs already have heads up displays like this? I know the M series can have them, but it's just shift lights and a tachometer...

Yes, Nissan and Toyota have them since the 80s. They wanted to go full-screen, but the authorities did not allow it for safety reasons.

BMW, CADILLAC, AND CORVETTE ALL HAVE A HEADSUP DISPLAY THAT PROJECTS THE SPEED ON TO THE WINDSHIELD. PERSONALLY I HAVE USED THE BMW 550i HUD AND I LIKE IT A LOT. JUST WISH THAT MORE CARS HAD IT AND THAT IT WOULD DISPLAY TELEPHONE NUMBERS (VIA BLUETOOTH) AND RADIO INFORMATION.
