If you mean that it's hard to insert a location, then you're kinda right. Works pretty good after that, but it's crude compared to some of the more modern GPS systems. Even Tom-Tom for the iPhone works better.

I couldn't agree more. It's borderline horrible. I would only use it if I were stranded. For starters, here are my questions on how to use the darn thing:

1. Is there way to see the different routes BEFORE you start navigation?

2. Is there any way to scan the map so you see where you are? Looks like you can only do this if you are setting a place to go on the map.

these cars were not made for nav...the honda/acura system blows it away

i think if porsche had their way they wouldnt put it in cars, not true to the P car heritage

but in todays world, a car like the TT demands it

even Ferrari is holding back on a modern system, sans the california

Just punch the map button and it brings up where you are.
