    Heads Up Display in X3

    I am wondering how useful is Heads Up Display (HUD) feature in 2018 X3.

    My first impression is that HUD is distraction... and as long as I can get the information such as speed limit / directions from the
    navigation display l should be ok

    Is it really an useful feature? If so, is it possible to get as a standalone feature (like Navigation) instead of Premium Tier as I really dont need
    Heated front seats, Heated Steering wheel since I live in an area which is not that cold.
    I believe I can get Advanced RTI if I select Driving Assistance Option. I am not sure what is Remote Services and probably I dont need it.

    If I had to go with Premium Tier package, I would need to shell out additional $1600 and I am wondering is HUD that much worth?

    I would tend to side with you - if it was an either HUD or nav display, then it would be a worthy feature. To me, it's more of a 'convenience' than an actual useful display.

    Once you have it, you will understand. The ability to see your speed, nav, etc without taking your eyes off the road is great and improves safety.
