Why would you get that when you could get a integrated unit in dash unit for a few hundred more?

While that is true that the d3 has built in navi but you have to load the dvd first.

if you have multiple vehicles then this thing is worth it. otherwise, in dash units can be had for a little more and has more functionality.

+1 Must be awesome to only need one if you have multiple vehicles. You just need to get multiple W205's to make it worth while
