I'd just like to know who sells a navigation system for their cars for only $300-$400.

Try "Garmin""Magellan""Lowrance". I had a Garmin hand held before and it was excellant. The tuff part might be getting one that fits the NAV door for the price. If you don't want to do a Google search on the above try www.aircraft-spruce.com or www.leadingedgeairfoils.com

Todd was referrring to the idiot they had introducing the cars. He said that stock nav systems were usually a $300-$400 option. What a moron. The whole segment was a joke, totally worthless and directed at soccer moms. They raved over the safety features of the Volvo SUV. But, that is the shows target audience I guess.

I think Jack Gillis was giving the "expert" commentary on the new 2003 cars. When he was going over the Z he mentioned something about the leather being "special" but cut off his sentence when he realized the Track model shown didn't have leather. Does anyone know if there is something special about the leather or was he just off base?

God, what a moronic and useless piece that was! The "expert" has absolutely no clue what he's talking about and they spent more time talking about how easy it is for old people to get in and out of a vehicle than any other single topic. Why they would even show a sports car for their target viewers (obviously old ladies) is a mystery.

But thanks for the link! I always like to see anything I can about the Z, even when it's presented by clueless morons!

That was the stupidest **** I 've ever seen. They only spent like less than 30 seconds on the Z out of 6 minutes. Looks like she was more interested in the mercedes wannabe hodna than the Z.

If you want an affordable nav. system, you can just get a used laptop on ebay, a GPS device for it, and some mapping software. $200-300. It's not as tidy, but it's a lot more flexible.

I'm so disappointed by the honda accord, i was hoping they will make a nice new generation but they make a crap!!! i like the old one alot and i think the old one is a lot better!!!!!!

no offense but i really think it doesn't look good

oh about the dodge, will they really put that much of features into the pacific? maybe they've going to use all there good stuff on the pre production model and when the real one comes out, it's gonna be another caravan.......even though my dad is driving one now~~
