I remember test driving an Oldsmobile in the late 80s that had a HUD. The display was outside of the driver's immediate center of vision so it didn't obstruct the roadway, but it was visible without having to look away from the road to see speed, fuel, and some other data. It used a blue vacuum fluorescent display, hot stuff at the time. IIRC though the rest of the car was an absolute piece of trash. Edit: Ha, my memory isn't terrible: 1988 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Indy Pace Car
