Ok, they are now finally putting in a HUD type speedometer into the new lexus and possibly other cars. but this was first seen in the 1988 pontiac Banshee IV concept. check this out, if they had produced these in the 80s, our cars would be more advanced now. http://www.lexus.com/ALLNEWRX/#/350/nav ... navsystem/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I know Corvettes have had these for a number of years now, but how much would have been to throw this technology in something like a Malibu :idea:

It would have been kind of cool to have a jump start on something different like this, since I'm guessing it will eventually be common. If its in Lexus now, Toyota will follow soon enough.

Sorry for my US automaker rant of the week.

Like in TOS
