Only downside to the M View is you lose navigation, phone, and cruise control info in the HUD, but instead you have a big huge tach along with your current gear and MPH.
Ya, I had the M View on my M5 as well. As you know, the way BMW renders the HUD tach doesn't provide much info unless you're approaching redline, and as you say, you give up a lot of other info. I didn't find it view particularly helpful and always used the standard view.
