Pulled the trigger

Well,

After being a closet AcruaZiner for a few months and doing my DD, I finally picked my new rod last week and I'm ticked pink. To all you who said on the 'Nav or not' bless your little hearts, it's priceless.

Thank you all.

Nav is great I'm sure but way overpriced in Canada IMO. Its a $3,300 CAD option which is outrageous.

An AT TSX w Nav in Canada (Ontario specifically) is $46,690 on the road.

I'd take a non-navi AT TL for that price instead.

Seems like someone is bitter about not joining the highly coveted Navi Club Membership and trying to justify it. I love mine so much, I'm going to marry my Navi screen.

Welcome. Yup, If you have the coin to get the option, or get a good deal one, you'll never have second thoughts. Whenever you go somewhere new it'll be priceless. You'll probably put on miles just exploring new places with it!
Congrats.

Someone mentioned the feature of using it as a YellowPages and it really works. Whenever I want to find the nearest BofA ATM or a particular restaurant, you just type in the name or use the keywords and it'll pop up! It's awesome. Our wedding is next month.

Actually went through a car broker so it was all slightly over cost (2k for Nav/43k total) but point well made it's not cheap in these parts.

Welcome! Good choice with the Navi! You will use it much more than you think! Now start ripping it apart and changing stuff out! You don't need no stinkin stock suspension!

Nav wasn't even an option on 04 Canadian TSX's so its not really possible to be bitter about it. And at $3300 I seriously doubt I would have gotten it anyway. At 2k its alot more attractive.

For the record there was a $1k rebate in May for the Nav, less markup =$2k

Do you mean 1k off MSRP of the car or 1K off the Nav specifically?
