To restate; if sophistication, ie bleeding edge, is the goal by definition you will be looking for new vehicles not used.

But bottom line the presence of even feature like an older navi in a used car is better then no feature.

I aint saying navi will increase resell value but its silly to say it would reduce resell value.

I find it highly useful, especially when out of town. Just this weekend it saved us from wasting time in KC Mo twice.

 

This is my opinion on those with non-navi Tl's

1. They are either younger and cared more about cost than function or older and didn't care about the gadgets.

2. They want something reliable and cheap

3. They want to be better than an accord, but not really.

4. They don't know what they are missing out on, and if they do, they don't care for it.

 

Or

5. You have no idea what you're talking about.

 

Which color crayon are you using to figure out the math? I'm not arguing, just stating my preference. No nav.

 

This tells me that you are an unexperienced noob when it comes to leasing...

Dealers love people like you. Enjoy your car.

(Navi cost roughly $2K, calculate the depreciated value at the end of term of lease, divide by months, convince dealer Navi is no longer a big deal, drive home with a brand new car with Navi...again it's a lease, not financing)

(EDIT: My point was in not the $5 amount, but it was to say it is cheap to add a Navi in a lease)
