One thing that I finally got used to is just turning the screen off. I drive to and from work each day, and I know how to get both places. I listen to the same station every day, so I don't need the audio display. I've found that I can just turn it off, and not have to deal with the display being too bright at night (even in night mode) and meaningless during the day (unless I'm listening to MP3 CD's). It turns back on at the press of any of the buttons on the left side of the screen.

I'll likely be doing the same thing, how do you turn the screen off? We have not purchased yet, bet we are looking at the forums for input. Thanks,

On the left hand side, if you press the (I believe) display button, in the top right hand corner you'll see "Display Off".
Other thing to keep in mind, if you get one with the nav, and want to hook your Sirius up, you will lose the ability to plug in your MP3 player. It's a documented issue that may have been solved with the '09 and '10 (I haven't checked), but it's an issue with the '08.
Overall, I love mine... nothing major I'd change.

Thanks for the reply. It really looks as if many people do not like the nav system on these cars. I could do without it but because Mazda bundles the Liftgate, Bluetooth, and rearview in the GT Package I'm thinking of getting it in spite of the difficulties folks seem to be having with nav. I'm also wondering if the 2010's may have any upgrades worth waiting for....we'll see. I'm in RI and the GT stock seems to be limited to Black, Black, and more Black.....These look great but I'm not looking forward to keeping it clean...
