I thought the same thing! Maybe it's been dramatically refined since first being introduced, but I found it to be very intuitive. No experience with other navi systems to compare against, however...

Lexus's touch screen navigation won't let u do much when the car is in motion, which sucks. Lexus bluetooth doesn't show the name of the person who's calling, 50k car and I have to look at my phone to see who's calling me??
Q: What is the point of this thread?
A: BMW's iDrive rocks!!

My friend has the Nav for his Lexus and he left all the plastic covering on the screen so it doesn't get dirty....SO GHETTO!!!

Not to hard to keep the display acreen clean on the Lexus!

Oh yea there is a simple procedure you can do after startup that will allow you full function of your NAV while driving--like input new or change destinations :rocks:

Editors bashing iDrive must suffer from complete mental breakdown when the time comes to program their VCR...
