Car I ordered is "on the water". P3 without HUD UO3

Was ordered when the Heads Up Display was not available.

Since I wear polarized sun glasses all the time I would not be able to see the display.

1100. less.

I don't think I'm going to miss it.

That is a lot to pay for HUD when its only $990 on the C class and S class

FWIW, I drove an bmw 5 series with HUD a couple of years ago with polarized sunglasses and had no issue viewing the HUD.

However, I like to put clear windshield tint on my cars to reduce the heat from the intense FL summer sun. Not sure that would work with the HUD as MB says there is a special film on the windshield for the HUD.

And for some reason, I thought you would get more information than just speedo and NAV. Would be nice if they showed some pop up info on incoming calls, radio station changes, AC temp changes, etc. For some reason, I recall that the BMW HUD showed more information than MB.

I drove a BMW a few weeks ago.

When we got back to the store I asked if the car we drove had HUD. They looked at me a bit oddly and explained it did, it was on.

I didn't see it with my glasses. If I rotated them I could see it

I have no problem seeing my HUD in my Lexus with polarized sun glasses...just a data point

I had HUD on an older Cadillac an it's one option I wish every car had. I loved it.

I just ordered a 2017 E-Class. The HUD is now part of the P3 package as code 463
