Yea that's the problem with packages sometimes....if all you want is one feature...you have to pay a lot to get it, along with other features that you don't want.....


I can't stand paying thousands for a "package" just for one feature I want. Acura should go back to the way they were before when they sold many more cars in that you got all Acuras loaded and the only option was a reasonable $2000 or less nav system. Many people switched from German or other brands to Acura's because they offered so much more car for the money compared to the competition nickel and diming you for everything. The base price may have been a little higher in some circumstances but it always worked out. Whose brain storm was it to start making Acura's so expensive with these overpriced packages and charging you for things you should get standard.



Yea that was their best skill back in the day: its already fully loaded, you just have one option, Navi or no Navi.
