I love the HUD. I drove a Bonneville SSEi with HUD for years. It is hard to go back to a car without it cuz you have to look down at the gauges.
It is invaluable when open road racing where you have to maintain a set speed (or not go over your tech speed). You don't want to be looking down at your speedo while doing 100+ through curves, etc.

i use my hud 100% every day.
i run RPM and speed.
at night i turn the gauges/radio to dim or "black" then out and run with just the hud on dim.
at night with the top down it's cool. like you are flying.

My problem with the HUD (I always leave it off) is that it's distracting. Maybe if I stuck with it for a couple days, I'd get used to it. However, I find myself stuck looking lower than I'd like.

Love mine, don't like taking my eyes off the road and having to re-focus on the dashboard especially when driving at night.( My Wife just walked in and told me she hate's it, thinks its a distraction)

For the last several years I only display MPH and have gotten to the point where I never look down. I too turn off my dash lights at night...who needs 'em.
