Have you seen this report? Volkswagen RNS510 Review - Car Entertainment
The cost factor of the RNS can be a hurdle. However, the fact that it then integrates into the full info/audio system of the vehicle, some see as being worthy of the cost. Maps are not as quickly updated as say Garmin or TomTom...but then again, you don't have an object (possibly) restricting your view while attached to the windscreen.
The unit has a 30G HD...but only about 20G is available for music storage. Playing of DVD's while in motion is illegal, therefore, unless you spend a lot of time in the car waiting for someone...it's a feature that does not rate highly for me.
I'd rather have full integration with the vehicle (RNS510) than not.
If the vehicle they are offering has RNS installed...;how much extra are they asking you to pay, for the privilege. Personally, I'd have the RNS. I'd also be looking to get a discount on the $2.5k+ premium they will ask you for.
FWIW...your dilemma is now understood...when compared to your previous thread.
