They also added the V6 gas GL400.
I will definitely add head up display if I will be given the option.

Maybe for 2016? 2015 DOGs are out without this option.

Also, that photo isn't a GL. Did you see it specifically listed for the GL?

Try config the GL on Germany website, and you will see it.

Another (cheap) option is the Sygic GPS Navigation for Android/iPhone which has an HUD mode.

2013 GL350. BMW 335. 2014R1200RTW
BMW has been doing HUD's so long I was surprised by its absence on the GL when I started checking the option boxes. My 335 has it and I simply love it; speed, turn info, audio info, phone, etc. all right there in the line of sight without being the least bit distracting.

I wish my Nightview was on a HUD. It shows amazing detail beyond the high beam xenons, but the screen location makes it a major distraction

That's what I was wondering about -- what's the point of that kind of early warning, "augmented" display if it's not line of sight?

HUD FLIR would be a compelling feature to upgrade to the next model.

can't wait for HUD for (hopefully) 2015 MY.
