The Cruze gets it because the dash was designed for it. Wait for 2 years and you'll get it on the Camaro when they decide to put in a pop-up nav screen.

This might not be an actual NAV screen, but rather in interface into the radio, trip computer, etc. Typically, the On-Star equipped vehicles don't have a NAV.

It is indeed a navigation screen. All Delta-II cars will have navigation installed as well as Epsilon-II cars.

As someone said, the Camaro will most likely feature some sort of pop-up navigation screen like the one in the CTS.

no big deal to me. my SS is gonna be pretty stripped. i'm actually trying to see if i can get the LS seats. power accessories eventually wear out and cost a lot more to fix.

Where are you going to put it?



As I remember the classic muscle cars, the most respectable ones were the ones that were stripped down, like the Z28, and made for power alone. These luxuries belong on Cadillacs, not high-performance Chevrolets. Some day, every Chevy will have a nav screen. :( That day will make me very sad. It will be the same day that GM forgot how to build a true muscle car.

I love navigation systems, warm seats, and leather, too; however, I will love them when I'm 80 years old with my classic stripper 2010-2012 Camaro RS SS in the garage. It might not matter to a lot of you guys. The option of navigation would be great because it would help Chevy trump the competition, but I want my stripper V8.

As much as I like the Camaro's interior, I LOVE that Cruze interior. Very hightech/modern. Something along those lines would work VERY well in the Camaro.

NAV v. Brembos....
That's the way I look at it.

Besides, if it's honestly that important to you, go get a TomTom or something, think of it as GM saving you 1800 bucks.

We've seen pictures of a pre-production Cruze without the fabric. Looked to me like soft touch plastic.

Clearly does not roll with the pretty bitches. Nor drives more than 50 miles from home.


Junkie needs both passenger and back seats, for there is to be much carting around of the pretty bitches. Should Junkie need to lower his ET, Junkie shall just remove seats at track.
