What Nav System would you buy?

I was with a buddy last weekend that had a 2008 BMW....I like the nav system he has. What system would you buy for your Camaro if you bought one?

Thanks,

Hoss

Ject - what system you using on your storm?

Google Maps aren't the best. . . no way I'll pay 10 bucks a month for Verizon's VZ Navagator. . .

I have a Garmin unit. . best brand on the market.

What about something like this:

I think this works best since it doesn't require tearing up anyone's dash. Simple & neat!

Maybe someone will develop a GPS unit that uses an HUD type system. Now that'd be fun.

True, but from what I've read On-Star is old technology. It must update if it wants to complete with the likes of Microsoft Sync. Read the following:
