Does the 2013 sports package have blue tooth?

ZeeBabar · 10-15-2014, 09:44 AM

Probably not. In that case, I am wondering what my best option would be, taking into account cost constrains.

I could buy an after market blue tooth, navigation system that fits in dash but with the installation, the cost may be $1000+.

Another less expensive possibility seems to be a GPS system with Blue tooth that is portable, can be put on windshield.

Since my Android works for GPS, I could just buy a blue tooth system.

Most of the time, I need to listen to my music on Pandora or off the phone so I have been plugging into the auxillliary and hanging my phone on a windscreen mount. The problem is that each time the phone rings, I have to pull it off and answer it. I guess with a Blue tooth system, answering phones would be easy and I would not have to plug the auxilliary cable/jack to listen to the music.

Comments?

Um... The touring package does not get you all that stuff on a 2013 the OP was looking for. Nav is required for all that stuff. However, the touring does get you hands free mobile phone use. OP, check this site

Really? They used to have that option. Did they take that combo away? I thought it was no navigation without touring.

Keep in mind the OP is speaking 2013 model, not 2015. For the 2013, Nav was a seperate option from touring. I have a sport/touring that does not have Nav.

You are correct the navi has to be ordered separately. I forgot about that since I wanted navi, I never considered the sport/touring without the navi option.

Zipper 104 · 10-15-2014, 01:51 PM

but up here in Canada for 2013 Nav and Sport were both separate options.
I have a 2013 Sport (Touring?) no Nav, but I do have the auto dimming mirror.
The audio setup I have is the 6 CD changer, miniplug Aux input, Sat radio, etc.
For 2014 (not sure 2015) if you bought the Sport pkg you got Nav. No other choice. Sport/Nav was a $5000 option on top of what I thought was called Touring. Canada did not offer the 'base' package, so Touring was our base.
The only options were Sport/Nav, the choice of either the MT or AT, and your colors, of course.
At least that's how i understood it. I went with a new 2013 because I didn't want Nav. I added a Garmin on a Pro-Clip mount and run my IPod through the 3.5 plug into aux. I power the Garmin with the plug under the glove box, and have a two USB charger thingy in the power outlet in the console to charge the IPod and a Bluetooth remote rig I have to operate the IPod operation without reaching into the console all the time.

Maybe that was the reason for my confusion.

I asked for sport/touring with Nav. and the dealer did not correct me since that was the only way I could get it.

cooltoy · 10-15-2014, 02:11 PM

Anyway, I guess the answer to OP's question is - the touring package for 2013 will give you Bluetooth without needing to add on the Nav. As per jpkirk.

It does give you hands free phone through Bluetooth but not audio streaming Bluetooth which is what I believe the OP is asking about.

It's kind of annoying they did it that way. But eh?

I bought a JABRA FREEWAY bluetooth system from Costco that clips to the sun visor. Looks fine and works great.

Having said that... I can't believe Nissan cheaped out on Bluetooth in the 370Z... my 08 Versa had it and our Hyundai Elantras and my daughter's Rogue all have it for goodness sake!
