Again if you have the money..... I doubt any dealer is going to even try to tackle this job. To add the NAV unit you have to remove the entire dash board and replace the wiring harness for the car where it comes through the firewall. You'd be far better off spending your ~$3,000 on an aftermarket GPS unit as the OEM one is reportedly not as good as many of the standalone units.



Neither the sport, nor the GT come with a 6CD/Mp3 player. Both cars come with a Auxiliary Console Input (ACI) mounted in the armrest. This allows you to plug in any Mp3 player with a 3.5mm cable. Many dealers will say the car has Mp3 capability and actually be referring to the ACI.

There is an available 6CD/Mp3 player that is a Dealer Only Accessory, meaning that you can get it from the dealer but no cars come with it. It can be ordered with or without Bose/NAV, so you can use it on any trim level 3. If you wanted you could negotiate the price of that stereo into your sale price and then you can finance the extra $450 it will cost you so you're not paying it out of pocket.



-leather trimmed seats
-heated seats
-HID headlights with manual adjust
-Auto headlights
-DTC (I think, not positive)
-LED tail lights
-bose audio (some people love it, some hate it)
-rain sensing wipers
-6CD (part of package for sport)
-NAV (part of package for GT, not available on sport)
-theft deterrent security system

That's all I can think of, though there are probably some other differences.



Well if the GT is out of your price range then it is. The only thing you could do is save up some money for a bigger down payment, and try to improve your credit while you do that. Like I said about the NAV system, you'll probably be better off in the long run with buying a separate system that you can take with you wherever you want. It's cheaper, it probably works better, and then you get full use of the huge glove compartment. ;)
