I always get Get Nav.
But this is the whole reason why things like this are options. Get what you think is bet not us, but you should definitely get nav. |

Agree, there are SO many computers in modern cars, just to name 6.. 1 - Main (handles engine and transmission, immobilizer, talks to ABS and body, throttle control) 2 - ABS/Trac 3 - Body computer 4 - Climate control 5 - Seat memory 6 - SRS (airbags). In the not so distant future cars will be more like cell phones on wheels, with over the air updates and feature additions (think Tesla updates). I know most enthusiasts will scoff at this idea, but its true. |

Not at all trying to be impolite, but pronunciation may also be a factor. Not sure how it handles dialects, but I have some background in VO work, and I do use my "news anchor" voice when speaking to it.

I specifically ordered my M235 without nav and my dealer thought I was crazy, LOL. I rarely use navigation but if I did, i would have gotten it. Like someone noted, I much prefer the standard old school analog instrument cluster with the fuel and real time mpg gauges.
For navigation, I simply push the "speak" button on the steering wheel and my phone will do what i tell it such as open Google Maps and navigate, search the internet, open apps, etc. And yes, the stereo DOES mute as drive-to directions are reported over the speakers. Lastly, if you want the bigger screen, you can pick up used ones for $200-300 and code it in. And yes, it will do split screen views too. |
