    I'm a little unclear on the HDD Navigation/radio tech. Is there built in storage that we can add files (mp3?) to, or is it called HDD to differentiate from a DVD based navigation system.

    Thank you for your time. I asked at a dealer, but the salesman didn't know the car yet.

    Hi David,

    There is a *small* amount of storage for a few JPG images that you can use to replace the startup/shutdown screens on the HDD nav system, but there's no storage for transfer of mp3s, etc. You can plug in a USB device with mp3s and the audio system will present you a menu of them, etc. to play them, but it doesn't transfer them to the internal nav HDD.

    That's a shame! Thank you for the information.
