I just purchased a New 2010 M5 with the HUD option. I take delivery on this car early next week. I am not a very tall person and during the test drive it was impossible to see the display on the windshield. Is it possible for BMW to adjust the the display further up so I can see it? Has anyone had this issue previously. I appreciate all your input in advance.

Yes - and as part of the delivery service your dealer should have prepared your M5 so the optional HUD was adjusted to suit you. It's a quick and easy (at NO Charge!) adjustment.

but I agree, a trip to your dealer to let them adjust it is a better idea...

Thank you for all your help. They have not said one way or another as of yet. I am still working out some details. This proves there is a way and now I have some ammunition.

Thanks Again!!
