I completely agree with this statement and the following one from xDrive50i.

Whenever I get into a vehicle without HUD, I never check my speed. Oops! Looking out of the windshield without ever having to look down is just so natural.

It is completely useful, especially when using Navi or during more-than-leisurely driving. She does have the M Sport for some reason... so I would assume that she will be driving it like an M3 to some degree Nonetheless, if you're willing to spend this much on a 7, I don't see why a useful $1300 option should be left out.
