I've noticed a LOT of people complaining about how big the Nav screen is. Am I just getting old or is there a generation gap here. I remember when cars had two things on the dash... A/C and a Radio, that was it. The rest of the time you spent holding onto this thing called a steering wheel pushing on pedals of various sorts.
I think GPS Nav is great (well, sorta, nobody knows how go GET anywhere with a MAP anymore), but having a screen in the cabin sure makes things look nice and gives you the option to do all your little geeky little forms of communication, like hands-free and blue-tooth and sat radio and sirius traffic, etc, etc....
I just don't really care if my screen is an 8" or a 6"... just not a selling point for old farts like me I guess. I don't even own an Ipod, or a laptop for that matter, so maybe the 2012 is perfect for me, considering I'm looking to buy used anways.
Plus the 5 speed.... yep, outdated... but it only takes 3 shifts to get down the track. That 8 speed is going to be shifting its ass off.
