I am in love with this update. When you change the property of an object, the changed property will displayed in the model.

Autodesk360 Integration
AutoCAD has added cloud computing in to the mix this year. This allows automatic upload drawings to the Autodesk360 server. One of the best features of 2013 the is ability to upload your settings to the cloud. I hope to see more integration with cloud computing in the future.
