Upgrading Nav

My dealer put the Nav in afterward for free since they messed up my order. It took them about 3 hours to install. I have my car for over a year now and I used it three times. That's almost $500 per use if I had to pay for it. I would go for those portable one.

i would love to hear what others were quoted from their dealer.
i received this quote just yesterday and was found it unbelievable.
Navigation Installation Kit + Fiber Optic Cable + 6 hours labor =
approximately $5500

You can add Nav post production...The issue (at least here in NorCal) has been availability of the parts. They're back ordered and my dealer (Carlsen Porsche - highly recommended) is taking a list of interested...
IMHO...

Plus it has bluetooth for the phone, announces the street names and has an incredible number of POIs. How much has Porsche improved the navigation module?
