I still am waiting to hear back from Tom Tom customer support to get a complete listing......but the ones listed above are for sure on their website, but some of the older models are not listed. I have only had mine for about a year, so thats I can confirm for now.

I heard back today from Tom Tom customer support today.....ALL past and present models have the ability to up-load new car images EXACEPT the following models: Rider (before April 18th), GO 910, GO 710, GO 510, ONE.

so buzzy, true enough, you are out of luck.....sorry, cause it is cool.

Thanks again for the most recent update although it was bad news.Oh well I guess I will just have to surrender my current model to my wife and purchase a new one for the camaro.Probably won't really tell her the real reason why!
"just look at it this way you will have your own personal gps and we will no longer have to switch it back & forth between vehicle's" Sound like a winner to me. Ha Ha!

And do your self a favor, and get one of the models that have "LIFETIME" updates...not all of them do...and you don't find out till afterwards you have to start paying for updates or are limited on the number of updates you get. Just saying....I love mine....I made mutiple cars for mine....so which ever car we are in.....ITS on the Tom. lol

Since none of the pics of my car are to my liking for a GPS image (too many reflections in the black), I just built my car on Chevrolet's site, did a print screen, and cropped it down to just the shot of the car, did a little editing, added the red background, and now I have "my" car on the gps when i'm driving around in my beater eclipse for the winter...

Edit: I may get back to editing the file to make the bowtie CGM like my stripes at some point.
