#9 of 59 06 Limited w/Nav and Bluetooth by dzuba Jun 09, 2006 (4:52 am)
I am seriously considering this vehicle to replace my 02 BMW 530 but am concerned about two features.   After reading above, etc.........and comparing the NAV System to my wifes new Odyssey, I can't believe how much better Honda's is...................maybe I'll buy the Garmin for $800.00 but was hoing to keep the dashboard cleaner on a new 34K vehicle. The Acura TL is just not the direction I want to go.   Additionally - I just received the below directly from Toyota on Bluetooth.......which is something I really want in a new car.    Response (Rose) 06/08/2006 12:44 PM Thank you for contacting Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc. We apologize; we do not offer Bluetooth technology as an available option on the 2006 Avalon. Your email has been documented at our National Headquarters under file #200606081104. If we can be of further assistance, please feel free to contact us.   Toyota Customer Experience   Then they sent me this:........   Response (Rose) 06/08/2006 12:58 PM Thank you for contacting Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc.

Replying to: dzuba (Jun 09, 2006 4:52 am) I think I can help. I purchased a 2006 Avalon Limited this week and it is fully loaded. I did get the Bluetooth installed and it is one of the best units I have ever used. Please note that it is not a factory nor a dealer option. Toyota does things differently from most manufacturers and uses a middleman company in my region called SET (Southeast Toyota). Many options that are listed as "factory" are installed when they get off the boat in Jacksonville. The unit they installed for me replaces the Sunglass Holder on the ceiling in front of the sunroom and the interior lighting. The unit is called the BlueConnect and is from AutoIntelligence. www.autointelligence.com. The number from the included brochure is 800-406-7132. Allow me to note that it is a simple pop in module that includes both a concealed microphone and speaker as well as an answer button and volume controls. The sound quality is excellent...as excellent of a bluetooth unit that I've used. It took about 30 seconds to set it up and unlike others, allows you to select your own PIN. It is all done by voice recognition. I used it to connect a Palm Treo 700P and the pairing was seamless. It also allows you to connect additional phones and grants you the opportunity to give each phone a priority. I hope this helps.

Replying to: apargh (Jun 11, 2006 9:50 am) so, did you put this bluetooth unit in yourself? Or did you have the dealer do it?

Replying to: dzuba (Jun 09, 2006 4:52 am) If you would like to order the part that TMS gave you a reference on you may go to WWW.Autointelligence.com and purchase BlueConnect. This is the highest quality unit in the market today. Do not be fooled by others, I have one of the BlueConnect units in my vehicle and it is great. I hear the unit is built by a automotive supplier so with that kind of quality their is no question. Replies to this message: jrjhm (Dec 06, 2006 11:07 am)
#17 of 59 How much for the system and install? by chabowski Sep 23, 2006 (5:23 pm)
The autointelligence site didn't have price that I could look up. It's a convenience feature not a necessity so price is important to me...
