Is HUD available on the Enclave?

It does not appear to be available. Someone mentioned it is due to the windshield glass laminations being different and not accomodating the HUD display. I don't know if that is the real reason or not.

Not sure either but all buicks use special glass for acoustics so it may be true.

I think the reflection off the glass would be there but there's a coating that makes it clearer if I undersand correctly.
 
What's this about a special acoustic glass. I've never heard that before. I learn something every day.

I have had e-mail correspondence with a Buick product manager. It is true that the 2008 Enclave will not have HUD available because of the special acoustic laminate in its windshield (designed to add to the quietness of this vehicle with the goal of making it the quietest SUV on the road) being incompatible with the HUD display. However, their engineers are working to resolve this incompatibility and are apparently getting close to doing so. They hope to offer the HUD in the Enclave by its second year of production (2009).

This is one reason why Buicks are now quieter than Lexus's.

Incentives??? by myblubu

Thinking of purchasing an Outlook. Just wondering about the incentives (currently no rebates, but only 4.9% 36mo financing - this ends April 3rd). Just wondering what's going to happen after the current promotions end. I am more interested in Cash/rebate than a low interest rate. With the start of '08 production in June, I'm wondering if there will be something on the '07's as we get closer to June? In looking at previous posts in this forum, I did notice that there was a Loyalty $1K that I must have just missed that could be applied on an Outlook. What usually happens this time of year with incentives???

There may be a small incentive due to some other GM wide promotion but I doubt it. In talking to a sales manager I know they cannot keep them on the lots. Also they are no longer taking orders for '07s because they plant is sold out thru July. And the Enclave is starting up so I forsee no reason for GM to offer discounts. In fact they just announced they are opening a 2nd plant to meet demand.
