Z on Order! Help with Questions!

Shrernae · 08-15-2011, 08:58 PM

Hi Everyone! On July 5th, I ordered a red 370 Z Coupe/Touring with Sports & Navigation, 7AT. It was due in August 19th.

On August 8th, I received a call that Nav. won't be available until December deliveries (due to the Tsunami). I can opt for a after market install of the Nav. with warranty...

I've asked for the brand of the after market install and any feature differences vs. the OEM version. Any other questions I should be asking?

The factory Nav adds the ability to adjust settings like headlight delay, provides a touchscreen music and iPod interface, diisplays AC status, has a trip computer with fuel record and has voice control. You would get some of that without the Nav, but not all.

I wouldn't want an aftermarket unit.

Thanks - I'm going to have to make a decision soon. I am being offered Pioneer AV1C, which has more features than the OEM, but not the specifics you mentioned. I'll let you know what I decide...
