    I used to have vehicle which had local hard disk to keep my music there instead of playing from a USB. Does 2012 Gen 3 has one? I can't find it anywhere and I don't have a user's manual :( thanks.

    No clue if that one has storage, but the manuals are free online

    Technically yes, but no features for music storage.

    2012+ with the Denso nav unit (7 inch screen) has an internal hard drive, and there are pics of the Japanese version having music storage options shown in the UI. Not so for the US.

    I don't believe US models had HDD music storage. (It is available overseas though)
