Stock Nav, pros and cons

Lemers

I'm not an audiophile so sound isn't as important, but I like the integration of the OEM nav system.

Exactly, the sound is just fine, I don't need an over-the-top system. As far as I am concerned you can't beat the integration of the OEM over aftermarket.

Exactly. The Bose system is just fine in a car with minimal sound insulation where you're ears are about 18 inches from the rear wheels. Never could see how an audiophile could justify a top-end system with the noise and distortion that THAT imposes on the listening experience. The best sound system in the world isn't going to overcome the road noise inherent to the Z.

Nav? I find MotionX Drive on my iPad/iPhone (also plugged into the Bose) to be superior, based on my experience with Nav on my wife's Murano. MotionX Drive app costs $3.99, add $20 if you want voice. Even if I needed Navigation, I just couldn't justify the expense of the OEM unit.
