Can sometime fill me in on the Nav System?

I just bought a house and have an 04 G35 Coupe 6spd, and figure it might be wise to get a cheaper car. I will miss the 300hp rush shot down towards my wheels, but sometimes you have to humble yourself and make sacrifices.

So i'm probably getting a 3, and I was wondering if the nav system option for it is a good system. I couldn't find any detailed info on it, so if you could lead me to a page with info on it that would be great. How is the interface? Will it tell you your MPG, or any other info about the car? Thanks guys.

The nav system is pretty good. It's the same as the RX8 nav system. Same interface and buttons. Although it might not be as fancy as the G35, telling you mpg or other info. It gives you the basics: ETA, distance, voice command. It also has a points of interest menu. It tells you where hotels, restaurants, etc...are. If you're listening to the radio or a cd it automatically offsets the sound to one side so you hear the voice directions better. Very helpful on road trips or unfamiliar areas. It would be nice to play DVD's on it but i think that's in the works too. All in all a good system.
