I don't think YET, but there are droid setups that are 10 times nicer, and as much as I like the iPads ease of use... The droid is better because of one app... Torque... Google it to see the awesomeness of the app

I use Torque and the track/video add-on with my ViewSonic G-tab. Torque full ($5.99) + ELM Bluetooth OBD2 reader ($14.99) and I've never made a smarter purchase.

As for Navi, get an aftermarket, IMO. Do it with a stereo upgrade and improve your car 2x as much for ~3/4 the cost of doing both independently.

You can buy a Garmin GPS Bluetooth thingy and then use the tablet for GPS too without using data. My buddy bought one off eBay from china for $30, free app and he uses it in his Mustang on his iPad
