I am partial to the windshield projection style. It is truly fantastic for keeping your eyes on the road while seeing your speed

I'm dying for good windshield HUDs

Volkswagen has a pretty awesome one but it costs like 10k more for that level of trim.

Even worse, then you have to drive a Volkswagen

They're notorious money pits, partially because they're also notoriously stupid to work on.

The two-tiered cluster of my Civic really grew on me. The speedometer is up really high so it's almost always in your line of sight.

The Civic's split dash was apparently generally hated, but I really liked it, for just that reason... The year after mine they switched it back to a single cluster, which I think is unfortunate

Oh my SIL had one of those for a while, it looked pretty nice.

Our Mazda projects the speed, cruise control status, and icons for vehicles next to us on the windshield. It really is very nice - one of the few things about that car that I actually like.

What are the things that you don't like? I'm in the market for a new (used) vehicle and Mazda seems to top a lot of charts for the past several years but I've never driven one.

Don't they sell add-on projector Huds which snake a wire down to OBD-ii port?

I love my HUD, I'm currently driving a rental without one and I hate looking down at the speedo.
