I would love to downsize my Acura 3.2TL with the Navigation system, to a smaller car but none of the small cars come with the NAV.

As far as the comment above about factory NAVS, they are equipped with gyro-sensors and dead-reckoning technology, which is not available with the cheaper systems. You get what you pay for ! I use Hertz neverlost Navigation while on business trips and get pretty frustrated using that stupid thing....it is certainly a relief getting back into the kick-ass Acura.
I've rode with in my friend's new TL with Nav... it seems to work
well.. but whenever he needs to change A/C settings.. he needs
to fiddle with buttons on the nav... (forgot whether it's on screen
or not)... too much trouble for me... I rather keep a map in the
car... and give me the simple control A/C and radios... since
I like to keep my attention on the road while driving..
