Replying to: mwg (Mar 04, 2006 6:09 pm) Here are some things that I HAVE heard spoken about: 1- iPod interface beyond aux input. (Announced by infiniti as coming soon, no word on which models or when, but likely on the next M) 2- XM's integrated NAV Traffic, enabling the NAV to get live traffic updates and route accordingly. (Announced by infiniti as coming soon, no word on which models or when, but likely on the next M) 3- More Front Passenger seat adjustents (no announcements, but I've heard from my dealer that there have been a lot of requests for it, so it's possible) Secondly, the 2007 M may not be out till Dec or Jan. I don't know when it's coming, but you can't assume that it will be out early as some new models are. Lastly, The headlights are easily adjustable, right now, to provide excellent range and vision. (Their only problem is that they come from the factory with the lows adjusted for a fairly short range.) So that should not be an issue. Search here for headlight adjustment. Pete

Replying to: pete_l_p (Mar 05, 2006 2:47 pm) Sirrius Radio just released a Traffic feature on their Nav receiver but the ONLY receiver that Sirrius is using this with is the "Alpine". I contacted my Infiniti dealer who hasn't reached me back yet about either hardware or software upgrades. ARE THERE ANY ? WOULD IT BE AN EASY FIX or would it be quite complicated to go from one Nav receiver to another inside the M ? (I currently use Sirrius). (Second by the way, my headlight are great. I saw the adjustment advice (very helpful) but the headlights seem fine to me, especially when used with foglights. It seems of course that Infiniti designed these lights so that they wouldn't blast people's eyes out in oncoming lanes at night. A welcome consideration for Xenon High Intensity headlights. My car was manufactured in October 2005; perhaps this was more of an issue in earlier-made versions (?)). I know that this query of mine is not much of a response to MWG, but saw your answer and had these thoughts. Thanks. - Kai M35x

Replying to: dubb (Mar 05, 2006 6:32 pm) - According to infiniti and XM press releases, Infiniti/Nissan will support traffic and other satellite based data services exclusively from XM. SO I don't believe they'll be supporting Sirius NAV Traffic. - My guess is that, more likely than not, when the product gets here they will not offer an upgrade supporting Live Nav Traffic for ANY existing M owners. More would be required than just swapping out a receiver. I'd love to be wrong on that, but this is my guess, based on past Infiniti experience. - As for switching receivers from XM to Sirius (or vice versa), or just updating your sat receiver with the same brand: Those things ARE doable.

Replying to: hawk1eye (Mar 05, 2006 5:25 am) For my taste and having this car for almost a year there's more tech in it than needed ... I'm a low-tech guy who enjoys the driving experience but doesn't get as much enjoyment out of the high tech add-ons that ride around with me every day. Knowing they're there is one thing ... taking advantage of them is yet another. Bart

Replying to: blov8r (Mar 06, 2006 11:18 am) Bart Have you tried the Nav? It's amazingly easy to use. If you'd like some help getting started, let us know and we'll provide some tips. Which other tech features are you talking about? Pete

Replying to: blov8r (Mar 06, 2006 11:18 am) I generally go for only audio & suspension options. In the Asian world, those are part of packages that include all kinds of stuff I care less than nothing about. In the European world, it's more possible to pick and choose. Either way, with an Asian choice, the junk you don't want is at least less likely to break and disable something you really care about. With the European (German) choice, failure is (arguably) more likely. This is probably part of why most people driving vehicles in this group lease. I prefer not to. |
