So I really don't understand why people on here keep saying BMW's nav is trash, maybe they've only used the older CIC system and the NBT is much better?
The best part about the NAV with HUD is you can turn off the voice/audio prompts and just let the HUD direct you. That means no interruptions to my tunes/podcast/audiobooks. The only thing I like waze for is pointing out cops. I only got the HUD because I bought off the lot, but I am glad I got it now.
