Hey, I'm planning to order a c7 in a few months. Looking at the 2014 models I had planned to get the navigation system since I hate having a unit suction cupped to my dash and an ugly wire running across a beautiful console. I also was excited to see about ordering the data recorder since I want to track the car on occasion. However with the expected price for the data recorder being 1200-1300 is not worth it to use it 4 times. I'd just not include it but now it's packaged with navigation... *sigh*. So my question is this, to those of you who have the nav system; how is it? Can it compare to my garmen that tells me the speed limit, routes me around traffic jams and shows pictures of what the exit looks like? I expect their plans to sell data recorders by including it with nav is going to backfire and result in no-one buying the nav system instead. So is the nav system worth $2,000?
