Facts
- The head-up display (RPO UV6) was first offered for 1999: it is in that year's option code list but not in 1998's.[2][3][5][6]
- The HUD projected speed, an engine-rpm scale and other engine readouts onto the lower windscreen, and drivers could switch off the readouts they did not need.[6][8]
- The HUD was one of the C5's more popular high-tech options and was part of the 2003 50th Anniversary Edition package.[1]
- The C5 Driver Information Center displayed a single line of data. Its C6 successor showed two.[7]
- For 1999, electronic dual-zone automatic climate control (RPO CJ2) was optional on the coupe and convertible but not on the hardtop, and a CD player and 12-disc remote changer were on the audio option list.[4][2]
- In 1999 an AM/FM cassette unit with Bose speakers was standard on the coupe and convertible. On the hardtop the Bose speakers were an option.[4]
