I've tested a few of those at work.

They're a good thing for a couple of main reasons:

Completely self-contained unit. Simply drop in the dash and attach the GPS antenna. - no more dvd reader in the boot.

The unit now supports a lot more colours, so the maps look nice as do the menus. Plus you get the excellent quality of Toyota's sat-nav.

Unfortunately, I was dissappointed that the unit, as far as audio, is pretty much the same. The AVS has a few adjustable preset levels, but nothing extraordinary, and the EQ is the same Treble Bass Mid adjustment. *** I'd love parametric in a stock HU.

Anyway, its a good thing, but probably insanely expensive.

I would def be interested if the price is reasonable and affordable.

This will fit in my Sportivo's double din space yeh?

Are they relatively easy to hook up or should it be done by Toyota?

yeah id be interested in getting this Sat Nav unit aswell :) (depending on price of course)

for some reason on the Toyota website, it is only avaliable as the Sat Nav option of all models except the Camry and Avalon...

which both get the older model Sat Nav systems, for some reason:

anybody know if this new system will work with the new Camrys?

and also with steering wheel audio controls?

with fitting, id also like to know if you can DIY, or should it be professionally done (at Toyota)?

like if it is plug and play, then you can DIY obviously

When i bought my sportivo back in March 04 i enquired about the nav system.

they told me that the nav system option would set me back around $4500...

..there went that idea.

Goddam!

When I brought my car in May the dealer told me it would be around $2000. I should have taken him up on it.

Personally I think i'm going to get a portable GPS unit. I'm in an out of different cars alot so it makes more sense on both a cost and practicality basis.

Im having the same ideas atm. My sportivo corolla arrives in 2 months and my dad said that the dvd sat nav was expensive. But 4500 dollars for a screen? Noo waiiii lol. You can get awesome sound upgrades for 4500 dollars. :) I heard it was 2000 dollars as well. Does this **** even play dvds???
