Well that's great so Honda and the European's don't participate in the SAE alliance and then the G navi sucks becasue of it. It is one of the huge things that has stopped me more than once from buying a G, the Acura Navi is light years ahead of a G.

Does anyone know if the 09 navi behaves the same way? I would have passed on the navi for my 07, but I wanted the music box and hte back-up camera. Personally...when I had to keep re-loading my 5 choices (Or pull over on an 80mph highway)...I was more distracted than I could have ever been with a touch screen. Not to mention that I had a passenger and the car already has sensors in the seat to determine that. Massive oversight. The forced fresh-air function being my only other non MPG gripe though.

I can't answer for the 09 NAVI, I have an 08 w Navi but in 08 they added the Compact flash also for music, I use a 2gb card have 17 albums and about 50 songs in the root directory, The root directory and all the others albums appear as selections you can select into using the center Nav button or the steering wheel contols and see the whole album. You can move around with the controls on the wheel or the Dash and change or select any song at any time, and any speed. I thought I would love the navi music box, In 3 months I've never used it, the compact flash more than meets my needs and is a breeze to connect to your pc and load or change.

Thanks....my 07 has the CF card also...but I loaded it up and had a list of like 1,000 plus songs to scroll through...haven't touched it since since. Plus I can burn my own CD and use the text function when ripping to the music box and essentially have varied songs. Then, of course, you start rolling and your high-tech device loses 5 years instantly in functionality lol Stupid, to say the least.

I've never used the music box function but odd how they let you scroll through the CF card while driving , but not the music box. I've organized mine into albums maybe why its ok to me. I know getting to the 40th if I'm on the first is a pain,

Name me a car with a 0-60 time under 5.5s which allows you to use the nav while driving:)
I think thats why the Nav wont allow you to do all these things you want to do, you cant have it all gentlemen

Having had one for 3 months I seriously doubt the sedan does 0-60 in under 5.5 I personally have no complainnts with the NAV personally I use the CF card for music and that lets you make changes in motion

I have the G35X and I do 0-60 somewhere around 5.5 seconds, where exactly in the range I will only discover once I go to the race track this summer. I would be shocked if anyone cannot do the same. Personally I have no issues with the Nav, its at par with Lexus. I believe only Acura/Honda allows you full functionality when moving.

I bet the altima/maxima nav does the same stupid lockout...and they aren't exactly rockets. I would do it again for the tech package and the music box...but I am not happy with the lockout features. They could have at least tied it into the passenger seat airbag sensor. Lease is up next year...the new 7spd auto is VERY appealing ! !

The Altima is Identical my son has an 08 3.5SE with NAV the units behave exactly the same, I believe his car is slightly quicker than my X I attribute it to the weight of the X, and maybe mine only has 2k miles on it
