That was pretty intense, are the people who pulled over just being nice or did he have a blue light on top?

Looking at those flashing beige reflections on a windshield confirmed that I made a good decision to stay with black interior for myself. Some may not even notice it.

Do you find that Polarized sunglasses affect the HUD display (not sure if it’s different between the Vert/Coupe)? I’ve started using my regular Photochromic glasses when the tops down to eliminate that.

I can see the HUD pretty good in my LC. I have a Yukon Denali where it is hard to see the HUD that is more of an amber color.

Guess HUD displays and polarization are issues across the industry, at least from what I’m reading. I’ve seen some comments that the Gatorz OPz work, but I need prescription lenses.

I can still somewhat see the HUD with my prescription sunglasses (Wayfarer amber lens) so not the end of the world.

I can still see the HUD, it’s just not as clear and dimmer when wearing the polarized glasses. Didn’t know if it was maybe the lens color or something. This is the first HUD (in a car) that I’ve had.

The HUD on the LC500 is much better with polarized glasses than the GSF. I don’t know if it’s the angle or brightness, but the GSF was pretty much useless with polarized sunglasses. The LC, though get dimmer with polarized sunglasses, you can still see it.

I noticed too that my caramel interior was reflecting in the windshield. It is indeed way better with polarized sunglasses and I have no problem to read HUD wearing them.

I love how he blurred out the tach in the entire video, as if we can't tell how much speed is being carried vs what the speed limit is likely to be. LoL.

If a passenger isn't holding on for dear life then it's not being driven hard!
