jdustinstone Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 I am considering a purchase of a 2003 - 2005 GS430, and looking into updating the nav system with the latest gen once I have the car. My question is, what exactly changes when you update the nav? Is it just the map itself, or do you end up with a different interface and possibly different capabilities? I read that the 2005 version added some functionality, such as bluetooth and the camera option. Would I find more options with an upgraded 2003 model or an upgraded 2005 model? Forgive me, I forget which Gen each of those is (4 and 5 i think). MUCH appreciated. Been reading posts all night - great board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are no visible changes to the operating system that affect the user interface. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
