I've test driven a X3 with HUD and it was pretty cool. I think adding the feature or not mostly depends on if you prefer to see the speed and nav directions on your windshield or seeing it in the speedometer and small display.

I found the HUD to be convenient but sorta distracting, while driving it was kinda annoying that there's a light orange hologram in my periferals. The little display under the speedometer does just as well in showing important information but I find it a little too small, I prefer the speedometers in Mercedes. I really like how the dials on Mercedes moves on the outside of the speedometer verses the inside in BMWs because it allows them to add another larger display in which is otherwise wasted space.
