I don't know if you are buying from an Acura dealer, but if you are and they can't take care of all that for you, I'd pass on it.

sounds a bit strange IMHO,
once you have proof of ownership you can get the navi and radio codes from the dealer
BUT
I would demand that you have them get those codes before you buy it because you obviously will not know if there is a problem with the system until after you have bought the car. And seeing that the tech is a major part of the vehicle you should NOT buy the car based on 1/2 of the experience.

A switchblade key sounds like the wrong key for the 05 . The car comes with 2 $300 keyless remotes which has added features.

You can have either driver 1 or 2 key but you need to buy a new key blank (acura/honda part number 35111sja305) - you can buy that online from curryacuraparts for 36 or cheaper at acuraoempartsdotcom if you live on the westcoast then have the key cut and programmed at the dealer or a locksmith to link to the car.

you can program the remote yourself or have the dealer do it if you're having them program it for you anyway.
good luck

you can call any dealer who should give you the radio and nav codes.
