Hey guys so I'm looking to get the 2012 evo x gsr and they have the option of getting the nav and touchscreen. Do you think its good to get that or should I just go to future shop or best buy and just get a aftermarket one. Any advice would be great

 

The SS package on the evo is probably the better idea

 

I added the factory nav to my car after buying it and love it; couldn't be happier with it and wish I would have just purchased it right away with the car. I also looked at some aftermarket ones, but none of them look as nice in the dash. Music server HDD, satellite radio, traffic updates, Bluetooth audio streaming...the 2011+ factory nav systems really have it all.

 

Yea go with the sight and sound package. You can always purchase the nav used for less than half the price

 

+1 on the factory one...couldnt be happier with it.

 

Dislike any extra weight on my baby lol =P

 

The nav setup barely weighs any extra over the RF 6-disc stereo.

 

LOL

 

Just take a **** before you get in. Should be roughly equivalent weight reduction.

 

the music server is awesome....I love the stock navi, its user friendly and has so many options

 

I really like my stock Nav... I've been in a friends X with aftermarket in-dash and it does not feel right, or look right.

I have a 2010, not crazy about the nav, and pissed I cant upgrade to bluetooth streaming. I would buy a newer one to replace it if i knew where to get one without going to the stealership.

 

With the music server HDD I decided I really don't need BT audio streaming; burn any downloaded songs to a CD and rip it into the HDD.

 

I went with aftermarket figuring I could get more bang for my buck. While that has proved to be true in terms of sound quality and options, I've got some nagging alternator whine that I haven't quite been able to figure out yet.

There is something to be said for just taking it off the lot with everything factory installed.

 

idk bout you guys but my aftermarket was 400 + 80 installed and has more features
